1. ‘So er…what are you in for?’

   ‘Armed Robbery. What about you?’

   ‘I painted a postbox pink and yellow.’

2. What’s the difference between him and “banksy” other than people rate banksy?

   Surely painting someone else’s property without permission is “vandalism” no matter what?

3. Yikes, they weren’t even painted well.

4. I have a strong feeling if they weren’t painted like a year 4 student then people would be more open to having them coloured.

   It’s why a lot of genuinely good graffiti gets overlooked and accepted by communities.

5. Painted to look like a creme egg…. Yea on crack 😳😂

6. Who’s mam did that

7. BOOO

8. In a row?!

9. Phew! Another hardened criminal taken care of. Thank god!

10. Someone needs to teach that man to crochet!

11. Maybe he should have stopped at sniffing the paint and gone home.

12. Good. Those look like shit.

13. Good, they shouldn’t have done it at all.

14. Stencils. The missing ingredient is stencils.

15. He should have gone for crochet woolly hats for the post boxes. Much more terrifying than a quick graffiti job.

16. This is near where I live! A couple were painted and then loads more were painted. Some have been painted over since – we now have a Mr Blobby one. I don’t think they’re supposed to be a great job, more of a fun joke. I find them amusing.

17. i think they’re hilarious and im disappointed that there are only pictures of like, 3 of the 37 boxes.

    ETA: [i found 3 more](https://uk.news.yahoo.com/man-charged-criminal-damage-37-150211618.html?guccounter=1)

    ETA #2: apparently 26 of them were painted gold. how dull.

18. I hope someone paints some more while he’s in the cells, that’ll confuse ’em

19. Remanded in custody at huge cost to the taxpayer…

20. Oh THIS the police will investigate.
