I some times meet my other half after she finishes work, I wait for her in a bus stop, there is a free standing letter box at the side of the bus stop.

Today got out of car as it was hot, was looking at the post box noticed a snail on the metal poll that the post box sits on, its not round but angled took a closer look at snail as it did not look right.

The snail was fake and on the base it had a small magnet but that's not all!

Where the magnet was underneath was a pull tab, pulled that and inside was a small scroll with lots of dates and random names going back over a year.

I put it back as I found it, so any one got any ideas what this is about?.

Maybe its a list of people who have looked at the snail. Go back tomorrow and see if your name has been added

The snail is catching people doing weird things.

The post box is down from a agricultural college

I know some one that used to leave letters for his ex girlfriend taped to the underside of a bench as her family hated him.

You dont need to write it! The all-knowing, all-seeing snail already has!


I don't know what its about! Sounds like a great find! You should have brought it home and investigated it, I have no rational guesses. Were they all female names? Could just be someones sex list.

Beautiful. Does sheriff get a prize for finding it then or...?

[T*]

basically like a treasure hunt/scavenger hunt for little things that are hidden (some have little prizes that you collect and/or replace, or just simply write your name on it to say you've been there and found it. it's pretty fun, haven't done it in aaaages though.
