Don Corleone's Post Box

Will people please stop knitting creepy shit and putting it on top of postboxes! Are there not real people you can knit for?  I'm reporting these as a fly post.  I've just had enough of hideous Santas and horse's heads?  It's like something out of the Godfather... 

I mean, I'm up for Chinese New Year as much as the next man but this is like something out of a nightmare.  Like something off Colonel Blimp's wall of hunting trophies.  There's no escape as the three heads eye you from every direction.  I've never really liked wool as a material and this makes me like it even less.  Maybe I have a wool phobia.  I had a woollen toy as a child that I really didn't like.  I think it was meant to be a pixie.  It gave me the evil eye and I didn't like how it felt.  Horses can be scary when they look at you sideways and being looked at sideways by three horses heads is too much for me.

I think I'll quieten myself down now by looking at something less terrifying like the war in Iran.  I passed another post box today without a wooden hat, just flaking red paint and rusty iron.  I felt a little better ...
