Something strange is both the post box and the telephone box have a picture of a crown on them. The crown on the postbox also has the monarchs initials underneath. We have postboxes with VR (Victoria Regina) and GR (Georgeus Rex) still in use today. Victoria Regina is latin for Queen Victorian and Georgeus Rex is latin for King George.
In most of Colombian cities, the telephone cabins are in somewhere at the streets, they are public and have telephones that work out with coins, but the vandals are their worst enemies to keep them in good conditions. We think there is no point of comparison with the cabins of England.
Regarding the post, there aren´t postboxes in the streets, in some offices buildings and houses may have a mail box at the doors of them, but usually people post their letters or documents in order to be sent at the post office like Servientrega, Adpostal, Envia and so one. I think it´s another great difference between the Colombian people´s behavior and those of Britains.
