are changing thank goodness. Have received about 30 so far and only 2 perhaps 3 are not charity cards.

At least something useful is benefiting from the sales.

Charity shop cards are lovely and a good variety to suit all, I always stock up on blank cards for birthdays from Oxfam or Cancer research - they are much more reasonably priced too.

I'm afraid the trend round our way is for the postman to bend the cards - every single one, regardless of width. My birthday cards were all creased over too. Never had this before, new postman :-| :-| :-|

I usually make my own, but have bought some this year...They are charity ones....

Cheap and cheerful for me this year.

With the best will in the world the stamps cost so bleeding much I have to economise somewhere lol x

All mine are MS Xmas cards (unless I run out) and have been for the past 15 years. I usually stock up in October, this year I have been so unwell over the past week I haven't written ANY yet!

I only wrote mine tonight and I had to make myself do it !!

I don't feel in the least bit Christmassy yet...and our decs aren't even down from the loft lol.

For some reason..to me..it feels like it's only the beginning of December.

I really should pull my finger out lol x

Hell young Muffy,

How are you, not seen you here much.

Good evening Foggy !!

I'm very well thank you...I kind of flit in and out still...mainly early mornings these days though !!!

Hope you're well x

aw i just grabbed a few boxes fromt he £1 shop lol, altho some of the cards did actually remind me of certain people, all will become clear when they arrive :))

*frets*

I got one addressed in capitals as well to MRS MUFFY MUFF MUFFSTER

gawd knows what the postman thought of that lol x

haha the name ont he envolope is ok its the card inside, some mean nothing but some matched wonderful,,, i think you were safe tho muffy x

*frets even more than Muffy*

I made all my own and I also receive a lot of hand made cards. I was quite disturbed to read the other day that some cards sold in the name of charities only mean the charity gets an extremely small proportion of the cost.
It is the postage that will kill sending of cards. My foreign cards alone cost me £8 in postage.

With a board name like Muffy I should hope I AM safe Stray tbh lol x

You make lovely cards Ann :-D

Thank you Sue.

At least you still get cards...my neices and nephews complain they don't have time and it is a waste, they will send a text or email,,,

It's not quite the same. I'd much rather receive a nice card than a text message..but tehy all think I am old fashioned! :-(

i got one addressed to miss whiplash and her butler
made my postie smile thanks rosie lol

ohhh Sue, your defo not safe, :-D your card suits you just right ;-)

This year I have received a couple of e-cards lovely to watch and listen to but
impossible to put upon the shelf ! :-D
