Mail Boxes

Whenever I travel to Mongarlowe I stop to look at the wonderful collection of mail boxes at the junction of Clyde Street and Little River Road.

They always look so hopeful.

I think about the collective noun for mail boxes whenever I see them.

Perhaps a bask or a whoop or a colony ... I am inclined to a congregation of mail boxes unless they all containing good news, in which case it is definitely an exaltation.
