A snowy #PostboxSaturday from Germany! ❄️ David (aka duck2006) spotted his local postbox in a small town near Frankfurt a few weeks ago, looking very cosy under its thick snow “hat”! ☃️
Look at this! Christa (aka dolldalera) recently visited the Naminara Republic (a micronation on Nami island, in South Korea 🇰🇷) and found the sweetest little postal setup: a cosy writing corner, a cheerful mascot, and a bright red “Naminara Post” box waiting for postcards. 😍 #PostboxSaturday #postcrossing

Outgoing today on @postcrossing ... she said she's into art and the paranormal. So: "Wayland's Smithy", by Anna Dillon. Supposedly, if you leave your horse and a coin outside the smithy overnight, the god will shoe it for you. A cunning ruse, making up a story like that when no-one has horses anymore to test it. Perhaps I should see if the god has kept up with the times and will change the tyres on a bicycle for me.
