Many things could explain why you haven’t received my letter or card .... many things could explain why I haven’t got yours. I do know that one envelope leaving Bhairawa with stamps on the reverse side made it to the intended destination, clearly the PO worker here knew better than me that was going to be OK. However I’ve been emailed by two friends that they sent things I haven’t received (and it’s been a while). I haven’t kept a list of who I sent what to so sorry, can’t oblige with any questions on that front.
Some family and friends have been lucky enough to get evidence of what I sent but not actually the item ........ one got an envelope addressed by me, inside a card to and from complete unknowns! That led me to whack a staple mid envelope to keep the contents within. The others however received photocopies of my cards and messages along with a note from Australia Post ‘your mail did not meet Australian quarantine requirements’ – pay $42.50 to have the unidentified plant matter irradiated if you want the actual item. I’d thought the packet of cards was nicely decorated – no thoughts about AQIS whatsoever!
Meanwhile, please don’t let that deter you from mailing me if the mood strikes you – emails are great but so is snail mail – and things do arrive. I’ll continue too.
