NEWS FLASH: The Queen does not dress down even when peering out of ordinary housing

This isn't Buckingham Palace, right Dean? But I don't know, maybe the Palace signs are hidden underneath the glued-on wooden fork that is plastered against the house. The Queen doesn't even look surprised by the fork. There seems to be a little consternation on her face, but I hear that isn't unusual : 

This is from Dean Marks's "Mail Art on the Road" series, of course, and it seems to have been quite a trip in every sense of the word. Thank You, Dean! 

Is that purple stuff teeth? Like maybe an accumulation of teeth? Let me know when you get back.

Happy it arrived.  The fork is what you get with your fish n chips in the posh part of Chiswick.  I stayed with friends there off and on.  Council house?  I'm afraid not.  These little 3 bedroom places are going for around 2 million US dollars.  The photo comes from an estate flier that came through the slot in the door.  I guess the place is so expensive that they don't have any money left to buy a mailbox!

The Queen looks good in the council house! So funny. I think Dean has read the novel 'The Queen and I' by Sue Townsend -->>Briljant story ----->>>>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Queen_and_I_%28novel%29
