We have seen yarn bombing and graffiti - now towns are being hit by random acts of crochet kindness.

Post boxes in a number of towns in east Norfolk and Waveney have been given colourful crochet 'hats', topped off with cuddly creatures including a Teddy bear, a bunny and a chick.

Many of the designs have been found by people in Lowestoft.

Others have mysteriously popped up in other areas across Waveney, east Suffolk and Norfolk, including in Great Yarmouth, Kessingland and Southwold.

Many feature Easter displays and others give messages of hope.

Angela Jones-Heath found one of the designs on Westwood Avenue in Lowestoft and said: 'I was surprised and delighted to see another one. It made me smile that I had found a different one from the others I had seen on Facebook.
