e-mail's going to play hell with philately,
too. What's to save?

Jim - my grandmother always told me that
philately would get me nowhere anyway!!!
Laura - you're right. Maybe we should all
send at least one letter, handwritten (if I
can remember how) - in a nice envelope, to
someone special...for them to keep.

How nostalgic. They were worth the effort,
were they not? I remember how excited I
would be getting a personally addressed
letter...

Let us not talk about the letter service as
if it were historic! It is still possible to
post a letter, here the Royal Mail delivers
letters like this 6 days a week in all
weathers!

Great commnts! Thanks to you all.
Pandarine's link - excellent!!
Emerald, you're right, I guess that most of
my mail is printed by a machine (birthday
cards apart) or is stuff I've bought on the
net....letter writing used to be by hand!!!

I love this photo. Very nice. I really like
the look of the tears and the string which
binds the envelopes. I wish more people
today took the time to write letters. It is
much more personal than e-mail. This photo
says so much.

I love letters. Have quite a collection
myself. This photo is inspiring--can't wait
to set up some of my letters for a photo
shoot.

Great shot. I have many old letters wrapped
up in this way. It's a pity print and mail management companies do not send out their junk mail in
more attractive formats like a personal
letter.
