Behind the scenes...

This is me, Jen. I am usually found in the office, some of you may have chatted to me on email (say hi again if you have), generally keeping the show on the road, and doing the majority of the unglamorous side of our family business.

Once in a while, I escape the screens and head out to explore the countryside with you... and I'm excited to be venturing to Bath, Stonehenge and one of our secret places (I wonder which we'll visit) tomorrow... I'll be sure to post on stories.

Always good to remind myself of the other side of the coin!

See some of you in the morning xx

Did you know that British postboxes are easy to date by the royal cyphers on their red bellies.

This one has been standing since the reign of King George V (1936-1952).

Whether you're a history buff or just love vintage vibes, spotting one of these beauties is always a treat. Have you seen a GR postbox on your travels? Or even a VR (from the reign of Queen Victoria)...

Following the 2012 London Olympics, some postboxes were repainted gold in the home towns of each gold medallist!

Let us know what you've spotted...
