Completely Unexpected Deliveries

(Updated)

The American Museum in Britain
Claverton Manor, Bath

Just the day before the floods of the end of October, unaware of the danger, I posted six pieces of mail in this mailbox. It seems they did not pick them up, and the following week I saw the mailbox was out of service. So, I assumed the box had been flooded and the letters destroyed.

The pillar box has remained unoperational for not less than three and a half months*. I had already given up hope but it looks like they emptied it in February. From February 13 to March 21, four five all  the letters and postcards reached their recipients in different countries, postmarked on February 12.

Maybe we can still wait for the remaining two one to arrive, right?

*March 8: It is unoperational again!
