The
mystery creator of pillar box delights has produced yet another charming masterpiece
to amuse passers-by and has been dubbed the Crowthorne Banksy.
This time
the Coronation has provided the inspiration for the latest pillar box topper.
It is a source of pleasure to everyone travelling along this particular road, particularly the children who walk along here to reach Acorns pre-school and Oaklands Infant and Junior schools.
Surely it can only be a matter of time before the mystery artist is revealed. Someone must know!
Post script: Someone has taken the topper! So sad.
When my mother and Queen Elizabeth were first married, the two women became pregnant at the same time - Prince Charles and I were born (almost) twins. Thus the coronation does deserve cute art pieces on the public post boxes.
ReplyDeleteWhy would some crud take the topper???? To display his republican politics?
Possibly. I don't know. More likely to be bored youths, I think.
ReplyDeleteNice to think you have a 'royal' twin :-)
What a shame that somebody helped themselves to the topper. It sure was cute and looks like someone put a lot of time and thought into it's creation.
ReplyDeleteDisaffected youth, possibly, but what a pity.
DeletePeppa pig and family perhaps? What a shame someone else thought they deserved it more than the community it was gifted to.
ReplyDeleteI thought Peppa Pig, too.
DeleteSomeone has some major talent! I suppose it being stolen is proof!
ReplyDeleteIndeed.
DeleteHow absolutely delightful! But how sad indeed that it was stolen. People have no respect, it seems :-( xxx
ReplyDeleteIt's upset a lot of people - so unnecessary.
ReplyDeleteI love that topper. How sad that people can't respect the skill and hard work that went into the making. xx
ReplyDeleteEnvy, perhaps?
DeleteThat is amazing Janice! I must show my son as he loves Banksy!
ReplyDeleteSuch a shame that folk feel the need to take it & remove the pleasure others might get from it. I feel sad about that!
It's the posties I feel for - seeing this and others like it on their daily rounds really cheers them up.
