Mail I like to read.....
....yes I'm not so keen on those envelopes with the windows in them. In the mailbox today came some welcome mail ....just perfect for sitting down to read on a cold damp afternoon after work. Time to dream about new projects I would like to make (well at least I hope to get around to making them sometime... if only there was more time in the day..)
I wonder how much longer we will continue to get mail delivered 6 days a week. The talk is it will reduce to 3 days a week (to save money)..and I have just been reading that there is the same talk in Australia now ..

Surely all us patch workers and swappers are keeping postie busy! I only get mail three days now which isn't too bad, wouldn't like it to be less though.
ReplyDeleteYour books look great, I, too, would sit with a cup of coffee, and read and read. But being very careful not to wave my hand in the air, as I once did, and spill the coffee on a library book. The one good thing, after I paid for a new one, I was allowed to keep the stained one!! Cheers, Jean
ReplyDeleteI get mail 2 days a week as it is so does that mean they scrap mine altogether.............nice shopping to read after work for sure.............
ReplyDeleteWonderful reading! We get mail 5 days a week, will be sad if it fades away there is nothing better than getting something in the mail box - well except for those unattractive window type ones!! Lol!

ReplyDeleteI love this kind of mail as well, we also get 5 days mail but have also heard talk of dropping it to less which I wouldn't be happy with :) Barb.

ReplyDeleteLovely post Lyn. Yes cutting the mail delivery I suppose is just a sign of the times but I love getting mail-it's so exciting especially if it is a letter.

lovely mail there Lyn, the best sort!
ReplyDeleteAustralia Post just today announced the axing of well over 1000 jobs, apparently mainly managerial-type jobs... but yes it seems that the weekday mail delivery will change sometime in the not too distant future to perhaps 3 times a week or something like that.
Parcel delivery is doing fine because of the popularity of online shopping - so that all bodes well for the delivery of our Swap Parcels!
