[Hvitveis]

Once again I come to ealize my hometown has no pretty cards

Welcome to the club. (my hometown in norway is postcard pretty, but I will not get there until mid july..)

[Catch-up]

A beautiful Jewel of York postcard dropped through our mail slot this weekend. The girls loved the beetle on it.

We got four wonderful postcards from Batty AND AND AND one had an OFFICIAL Olympic stamp on the back!!!!!

AND AND AND two Doctor Who badges !

Thank you Batty! Mine (Hayden nabbed the other one) badge is on my winter coat next to Bouncy's Dalek. AND AND AND the new little silver and shell turtle my oldest Truly bought for me for my birthday.

Out of interest, how long does something take to reach Australia?

I'm wondering if airmail is faster than royal mail letter post!

[Del]

No idea. It arrived Friday. the ummmmm 4th.

[Batty]

It took 10 days then! I posted it 25th April!

That must equate to 2 days flying / sorting time, 1 day delivery, and the remaining 7 days beeing squidged and prodded by the postal workers!

7 days around my suburb more like. I live a few blocks from the State Mail Sorting Depot..... so it would have arrived, done a lap of Australia, come back then got put in a posties bike satchel before coming my way.

Still no sign of the one I posted to AuntyVague well before then though, I wonder where that has got to?

Sorry Mad, I've been busy for the last couple of days and didn't see this! No, your postcard hasn't arrived which is very odd as the post around here is pretty good and things sent from the UK normally turn up fairly promptly. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it has just been stuck somewhere and will get here soon!

[The Mad Collector]

Well if only one card out of all the ones sent all over the world due to this thread fails to get to it's destination that's still pretty good

[Batty]

Years ago, on a holiday in Spain, I travelled to Gibralter and sent postcards home from Gib. I then finished my holiday and returned home, only to find that the postcards had not arrived.

They eventually turned up 5 days after I returned home!

[LilMaibe]

Okay, I lost my list of who I already sent a card to. Who got one of mine?

[Conforumist]

I'm still waiting...

[Batty]

I thought of you, Con! Here
