How late is your Christmas Card

[Spartacus]

Its that time of year again, past Christmas day and late delayed cards are turning up.

How late are your cards arriving ? 

Last year I had one delivered 4 weeks late.

Can that be beaten this year ?

But when was it posted?!

I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness.

If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards.

I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier.

And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year .......

Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes.

Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?

Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy. 
I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
