Letterbox Laughs - Ocker style

Reckon its time for some more letterbox laughs.  
We saw this beauty or, bewdy... 'cos I'm indulging in some Aussie Speak (translations available in the Aussie Speak Page, for my overseas bloggerfriends).


Meet a typical Ocker...




... and his little mate












This is where we found them

Thanks Reidy at # 12

  6. ooh, ooh...I looked up 'ocker', and, your little guy looks the part. But, what a cute mailbox. If I were the postman/person/lady, I would have to have a chuckle everyday as I pass by! Great day to you dear Susan!

      I agree, it's more interesting than the old milk can next to it.
      Over here we get around the "postman/person/lady" dilemma by calling them the "Postie" ... lol, that little "ie" we shorten words with comes in real handy at times :D)

  11. Somebody has gone to a lot of trouble to make that letter box, it's wonderful........

    I love finding rows of letterboxes standing like sentinels by the roadside, each waiting for some mail.

    This one would make me smile every time I visited, but I think I would have to wrap a little scarf around that Aussie bloke when Winter arrived, hehe.....

    1. Yes, it's nice to see lots of them by the road Claire. In a lot of cases, we'd never know (so many) people were living down a particular road if it weren't for the letterboxes.
      Lol, I think Ocker would have his flannies on for Winter ... no worries!
