We did, however, find some nice, shiny trinkets, so the search was not entirely futile!"

Such post boxes are a common sight in England.

I'm afraid I can't read the options which seem to be causing mirth.

But the resulting presorting e.g. "local/abroad"
or "first/second" class seems rather sensible in a large post box.

Rather like GPU TFers could be offered the choice between helping the
LL effort and finding factors just for the hell of it.

It says "stamped mail" and "franked mail". With my level of English I can't get the joke (if there is any)

I don't think it's just knowledge of English, 'cause I don't get it either. (Let me guess: someone will explain it and I'll either go " I can't believe I didn't get that!", or "Heh?".)
