Perhaps wise to send one back?

A small investment... she (or he) may be a long lost (wealthy) relative

How
No address
No names

Why do people send Christmas cards without putting their address on it???

I always put the originating address on the back - then if someone has lost my address we don't loose contact
Would have helped a lot when one of my childhood friends moved house 3 times in about 18 months and I lost track of where they lived - would also have helped if their COA cards had a date on them!!!

My mum always puts her address on the back of letters etc.

Yes but send it back to where? No address or any other information with the card.

One of my grandsons takes his driving test tomorrow afternoon . His twin took his last year and passed. This one has been riding a motorbike for the past 12 months but riding in the horrible weather has lost its shine somewhat.

Fingers crossed he passes.

When I did my motorbike test my fingers were nearly falling off towards the end due to constant clutch use on a fairly short circuit.

I have a few pages of stickers from Cycling UK and various other sources for prize draw entries which I use on anything I send out by post.

Senders address* as the return address, mine* as the address on the front, marked not known at this address.

*Both printed on, no matching handwriting.

This is getting worse instead of better

We got one for 20+ years with no idea who it was from......no return address, we didn't know the names or recognise the post code. Our names on the card were correct.
Poor peopl/person either gave up after 20+ years or died

What did you do with the Postal Orders that they had enclosed

Mmm, and London entering Tier 3 which I'm sure has nothing to do with those nice people who hold anti-anything marches every weekend! After all of the months of sacrifices that the sensible people amongst us made why on earth would they think that by removing their masks and mingling in large groups was a good idea

I will be in tier 3 by Wednesday, 3 council districts in my part of Hertfordshire will be in tier 3 . But I have a cunning plan , just a short walk to the end of the lane I live in is the boundary to another district still in tier 2. So I’m going to buy a tent and camp in the field at the end of the lane . Matt Hancock is not going to beat me.
