I have lost a few letters in the post. At the moment we are a bit worried because we have a new post man who takes longer.... he will get better with time , I'm sure, but it is still a worry.
My friend sent me a birthday card in April, first class stamp..... and it has not arrived YET.
These things do happen.

BUT.... If the post is sent SPECIAL, it goes in a different bag and is not ever mixed with the other post, it is signed for at every hand over..... SO the people at the post office told me.
So it may well take longer Joyce, I don't know.
Hope they arrive.

Joyce, hope it arrives soon, are you sure he put the right address on?

As you know, things get to me from you and from others, very quickly these days.

Talk to you soon
