A number of weeks ago I uploaded a chain in which I stated it was painted red.A couple of eagle eyed members stated it was coated in red plastic and not paint.This was indeed correct.I make no mistake this time when I say the post here was painted over red at one time !!

Ah, that explains everything. So it's you at the other end of the chain... ![]()

You are correct, of course, Mick.
Plastic hadn't been invented when that post was painted ![]()
And as this is Shadow Saturday, I will defend you by stating that this post is but a shadow of its former self.
Joking apart (well, one of us was probably joking) I have a photo somewhere of a French fire hydrant that looks remarkably similar. I mean, it's red!

P.S.: Please forgive all unusual spellings, comments etc. My keyboard will not behave itself.

Pretty rough place you live in where they have to chain up their bollards, Mick.

Good title Mick, and by the comments you have had they know you pretty well, you do love your rust and why not, hope those chains stay where they are .....well spotted nice one mate.
John
So, Mick...you went to see how Big Agie was doing, only to find she had slipped free from her ball & chain. Me thinks you need to purchase a stronger lock... Looks like she had a good chew of your bollard before leaving.
Malc
Yep, it's definitely painted red...well, where the rust has crept through! A fine piece of artistic work, Mick ![]()
