This Pillar Box stands outside the Pizza shop and seeing as we found it in the dark on our way back from the speedway we caught the eye of the Pizza shop workers with the camera flash. To their amusement they came out to see what we were doing, so we explained that 'we were waymarking the post box' to which they nodded accordingly and all parties resumed their duties.
