Howdy!

I like to write letters; the kind where there is ink on paper, and it is sent in an envelope! Does anybody else do this? It would be nice to write to someone from here, even if it is just postcards (I travel a lot and find some good ones!)

Letter writing you say.............that takes back a bit, all the way back to 1756 when writing letters was the big thing as there were still issues with the Internet back then.

I recall sailing the high seas, whisky in one hand, feather pen the other writing to dear darling wife Clementine while being tossed from one end of the cabin to the other in a wild storm while a giant Octopus was trying with all might to drag the ship down..........what fun those days were. 

Anyway a postcard sounds good if you want to send me one to NZ I will send back one. I can pm you my ye old address if keen

It's a dying art, which is a shame.  The last ones I can remember writing and receiving were at college--right about the same time Rhys was rolling on the high seas.

Got mine yesterday and enjoyed it very much...inspiring, and I even learned a thing or two.  Now to find a pen and see if I can still write without using a keyboard.
