Such passion on a simple topic
My 0.02 what ever enables more game play options without getting silly is best
It’s not that simple
15 and 16th century
England
Henry VIII -----> Elizabeth I -----> No Heir
Scotland
James Stuart IV and Margaret Tudor(Henry VIII’s older sister -----> James V -----> Mary Queen of Scots and Lord Darnley(cousins) ( Mary gets her head chopped off by Elizabeth I, her cousin) -----> James VI with both Stuart and Tudor blood unites the Scottish and English crowns in 1603.
Great Britain
Charles I ( head chopped off)
Cromwell
Charles II
James II and VII
Catholics/Protestant
Glorious Revolution of 1688
Jacobite rebellions
Mary and William( Protestants and Cousins with Stuart and Tudor blood)
Anne, the last Stuart
Act of Settlement 1701 barring Catholics from the throne
Act of Union 1707
Fast forward 250 years past the Germans on the throne and a postbox gets blown up with Stuart and Tudor blood and the weight of 300 years of history in its symbolism.
We are passionate about our postboxes……well some of us are😂
Well this is fecking annoying
Come on uk reviewers, temporary? Its a post box, it aint moving anytime soon. Oh and i think they will find that is the correct monarch and time he was kn the throne (although, i just noticed i missed the word rare at the end lol)
I’m Surprised that there are any ER Vlll not submitted since they are few in number.
Yes poor reviewing. They have chosen to reject under the question permanent and distinct. So it wasn’t to the temporary part but to the distinct part as presumably they have just seen ER and gone no.
What did you have for the title?
Rare edward viii cypher (try to avoid saying postbox so emily doesnt just insta reject it)
As for why it hadnt been submitted alteady, it was in a random cul de sac in bishoppbriggs, only reason i found it was i was going to destroy some machine and passed it lol
Ah hidden in a cul de sac.
Oh well try again
Historic Scotland has 10 that are listed, I’m not sure how many others are still left beyond the wall.
Tobermory
Forgandenny
Looks like it is on what was the post office but now converted
This was my second attampt, first attempt.emily rejwcted after a month in normal voting
Oh I need a sad emoticon.
I thought I had an excuse to visit Tobermory
Appeal???
Or 3rd time the charm
Other exciting news from the ever fascinating world of UK postboxes…
Some wags in Edinburgh took a grinder to the II n EIIR in Edinburgh.
Funny how this is just a bunch of Scots here trying not to think about other things
We know niantic dont accept them lol. Ill just need to try again when j get back from london (and have spare nominations.)
What you talki g about, im clearly from the glasgow spain, we make haggis and black pudding tapas here lol
I managed to avoid the entire thing. Glorious. I detest football. Postboxes are more interesting
I think getting the light correct so that the VIII stand out a bit? Like @elijustrying said you probably just got enough quick clicks from people seeing the ER.
Wait, what happened with Spain and postboxes? I’m confused.
Nada.
