Another great letter, Terry! Your father-in-law - you must have had so many laughs, the two of you - that's brilliant.
I had no idea that postcodes represent only eight addresses - that's extraordinary. I thought they were whole streetsworth at a time - I've learned something!
I'm very worried about the special wooden carpenter from whom you'd pinched the pencil. Did your appropriation of the item compromise his or her career? I do hope not.
Thanks, Rebecca. We did! I think I may have been misinformed citing 8 as a GENERAL rule. Accordimng to the PO: "Each postcode covers an average of about 15 properties. However, this is not a definitive number, where postcodes can hold up to 100." Where I live, it seems to comprise around 20.
Re: wooden carpenter. It reminded me of: "I know a man with a wooden leg named Smith." "Really? What's the name of his other leg?" Chortle. Point taken, I shall be more careful in future, o pedantic one. Chortle
£50? Is that all a title costs? Well, my goodness, your nobleship! I sure wish I had known that. It would have changed everything about the way I traveled through Britain all those years... sigh.
Fine letter today, pal. And yes, any time I hear the words "new and improved" I just snort. Not likely.
😆With such authority on the post, stamps, mailing options, the bus schedule, photography, not to mention your authority on potatoes and let’s not forget books and 🐈⬛, I think you should run for mayor!
Yes, I have often thought of running for mayor as I have some brilliant ideas. For example, to save confusion, I think people driving from London to France should continue driving on the left, and people driving from France to London should continue driving on the right. I also have plans to erect a huge climate-controlled dome over London, if not the whole country.
Terry, I am appalled to hear such stifling ideas of control from a Freed-man!😉That said, a mayor with a good heart and head is the way to go, even if he is fond of a potato head.
(Edit) Freedman for Mayor! Pot holes repaired and potatoes posted free! Cast your vote for Freedman for a turnip in every pot! I want to be your PR manager.
Rule#1: Mayor shall speak the truth and only the truth and never chicken 🐓 out for being a carnivore. I thought that might have been the last vegetarian mean of your life—when we met with Elaine. You want more?;)
'Father-in-law: How do you get the photo you just took from the camera to a picture you can hold?
Me: Well, I take this card out of the camera, and when I get home I insert it into my computer, and then I open up a photo program and then I load the picture from the card to the program and then I print it out.

Very good. That made me laugh. Thanks
Thanks, Bert! Glad it gave you a chortle. 😁

PS thanks for kind words!
Yes. My friends are cheapskates. Snorting is the only sensible response.

Anu, PLEASE don't give him ideas like that! 😲🤣😉
Ok, 🤫 😀
Why not? It's a great idea. At least SOMEBODY around here recognises my leadership potential.
Freedman for Mayor! A chicken in every pot, a pickle in every post! I am IN!
Thanks, Sharron. I'd agree with you if I knew what a pickle in the post meant. As for chickens, I'm vegetarian, so there.

F-I-L: Ah yes, so much easier than a Polaroid³.
