Mouse Academy

Thanks so much for putting yesterday's Watching the Sunset on the TP and the PP.

No time for photos today because I have been out for lunch at a friends house and only just got home.

Here is a photo taken in Newcastle a few weeks ago.

I just love how they have decided to paint the electricity junction boxes in the centre of town. This one I spotted close to the new university campus in the middle of Newcastle. So they even cater for mice in Newcastle too.

I will post a couple more over the next two days.

It happens here too, the various boxes are painted with all sorts of arty works. I should make a collection of them.

What a fun idea. Wish they would adopt it over here to, the junction boxes are big and green around here!!

A lot of the junctions boxes have been painted, including the traffic light control boxes and also the telephone terminal boxes too. I will post another of the junction box photos tomorrow and next time I am in Newcastle I will wander around and see how many more I can find.

[Babs]

@yaorenliu Yes do make a collection of them and post them on here I would love to see what they look like.

@annied id you get any good photos at Central? David would have gone down there but we have had a busy weekend.

@craftymeg Our junction boxes are normally just plain green too and the telephone terminal boxes are grey.

[Annie D]

@onewing I did Babs - eventually I will get some posted on here hahahaha - I was really impressed with the Garratt :) and loved the rail motors too :)

[Jane Morley]

I absolutely love this one!
