No, I cant see in what way he's a 'Have-a-go hero' either. However there's an interesting comment from the PO spokesperson in the report:
"Royal Mail spokesman Heulyn Gwyn Davies said: "We are extremely disappointed that someone has chosen to vandalise this particular post box.
"It is illegal to tamper with any of our post boxes and we are liaising with our engineers to ensure that it is repainted red as soon as possible.""
He will of course be investigating who has attached ugly square boxes to most pillar boxes in our area, and will be sending his engineers round to remove them forthwith.
PS I know they are to put as yet undelivered mail in, but that's not the point. Vandalism is vandalism.
