ever since buying our villa in lanzarote , the one thing that has really really bugged me (even though there is other stuff to sort out) was the horribly faded to pink post box. so yesterday while in a discount homeware retailler i made the reckless purchase of a €1.99 rattle can of post office box red of unknown brand......or so i thought!!
so last night .... after some beerage....i thought , right post box , your pink days are over! in 45 minutes it was off the wall , keyed back (ish) , 2 coats applied and re-hung on the wall. gotta love the canarian climate , it would have taken hours to even tack off at home.
only thing is what looked like a good solid red in the shop turned out to have some serious flake in it......... so i present our near candy red post box....hope the local posty has shades coz boy does it pop in the sun!!
