Hiding the letterbox: err, how?

Narrow letterbox: mine is already too narrow to fit mail-ordered DVDs through, so if anything I'd like it wider.

Recycling box: I really should get round to arranging to be sent one of those, now you mention it. I currently batch up recycling until it's worth shoving it all in my car boot and dropping it off at Sainsburys on my way home from work.

You should now have a shiny new blue box. Or a scruffy, beaten-up new blue box if it's anything like mine. Apparently they will happily take black box recycleables from a blue box and vice versa.
