I haven't received any post since the early part of last week, which given my popularity with utility, insurance and double glazing companies, not to mention my Hillarys Blinds hate mail, (they sometimes stretch to two a week), seems somewhat unusual. And of note, one of the last letters I received had 'Delivered to wrong address' scrawled across it in a malicious font.

As yet, I haven't had the opportunity to call upon neighbours yet to see if I'm alone in my predicament. I don't have any loose tiles, so can't see why my property would be singled out. I live in a small village, not particularly isolated. Apart from my empty box, the only evidence that the Postman hasn't knocked is a distinct lack of elastic bands in my close.

Has he befallen some kind of sickness, or even worse Voodoo?!? Or is there another mail strike I'm yet to be informed of?



Concerned of East Anglia.

That appears to be a name, rather than an address.

Maybe this is why your letters aren't arriving?

Looks at the positives - no bills and no junk mail. I got more and more everyday. Think I am going to duct tape up my letter box.

And I'll direct you to look at the negatives... No Christmas presents. For me.

Bad, bad, bad.

If, as a seven year old, I can write a letter to Father Christmas c/o The North Pole telling him I've been a good girl and want a Pony for Christmas. Only for said Pony to be brought on Christmas Day 1988, then I see no reason why not!!
