The ones above and below were found in Bremen, Germany by my friend Hammie!! The one below, if you put a coin through the slot in the middle it plays songs for you!!!! Isn't that great!!!
My friend Emily in Australia emailed me this photo of a drain cover in Wellington, New Zealand!!! Isn't it brilliant!!! I'm going to add this in to my collection...!!
We found this drain cover in Lille, France, in March 2013!!
I found these ones in Brussels in February 2012! This shell isn't really a drain cover but it's still rather pretty!! So far, all these are European except for one.

That's the last Brussels drain (above)!!!
Recently, I got some mail art from a friend called Kaz who lives in Japan. Kaz sent me a picture of a man hole cover!!!!!
I can't remember where he said it was - I think it was either Japan or LA, but I'll check and update this update later!!!
Hammie went on holiday a while ago and sent me this picture of a drain cover he found!!
These are French!
These are French!
Hammie sent me two more pictures today - he found more drain covers on his camera!! This one is from Amien in France...
And this one is also from Amien in France!!!
Last week, Andrea got out some old photographs from a trip she took to Barcelona. She went there before she met me, which is why I didn't go. But she showed me a picture of a Spanish drain cover she found there! It has lots of little pictures all over it!!!
She also showed me this picture in Barcelona. She found this on the pavement/sidewalk but she's not sure if it's a drain cover or not.
She says it might be a fancy sundial or something...
My friend Hammie went on vacation in the Brittany area of France (August 2011). Because he knows that I like looking at drain covers, he took lots of pictures of different French ones and said I could post them here!
I'm not sure what towns they're in but maybe he'll tell us!
This one looks like a telephone cover!!
A circle inside a rectangle! We don't get those in England!
This one's almost a Fleur De Lys design!!
A spotty one! It has measles!
That looks a little bit like the English Gas covers...
I think Hammie said these three are from St Malo.....
Wow!! Those are pretty!! Thank you for sending those, Hammie!!!

ReplyDeleteI have never seen so many amazing drain covers! I don't think we have nearly so many interesting ones over here. In our area, I've hardly found any.
