Cards
Our postman gave me a cheery wave yesterday and waved this Christmas card through the window.
" kids!" He chuckled.
Thank you to all of the bloggers that that taken the time and effort in sending me a card......
This one by Rachel.......made my day.
It gave the post office a chuckle too
The things I do when I'm at work. The postman got it right, I never really grew up. Glad you liked it John and everybody else. It is more fun than actually knowing the address.
John, you must frame this one! Rachel should get a contract with Hallmark cards - her non-traditional, yet highly impressive, 'cottage garden' scenes could fill a gap! Can't wait to see what she comes up with for other holidays. What fun. Rachel is amazing.
That's odd. I addressed your card to "The Nice Man of Trelawnyd in the house by the church with the randy old bulldog," which I thought would be foolproof; but it was returned to sender with a note saying "There are only two grumpy old gits living here now." Ah well, Merry Solstice when it comes.

Nice one ! I recognised Rachel's artwork as soon as I saw the picture - it's so distinctive. It's an idea to frame it John, it may be worth a fortune one day ! Surprised some miserable so and so, in the spirit of Political correctness, didn't refuse to mail it on !
And yet we still get other houses post coming through our letterbox and ours frequently goes astray! Perhaps the Welsh postal service is better than in England!
Guess I've been trying to send mail in the USA all wrong... postal service loses, rips up or otherwise maims darned near everything I send. I'm gonna try Rachels method... at least you get your mail. Love it!
Brilliant! Gotta love a pictogram!
ReplyDeleteloverly!
ReplyDeleteLove it. Think of all the people who have been cheered up by seeing that drawing.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the pictogram - especially the two plates with scotch eggs on them! Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteIs that your address? Cool...
ReplyDeleteFunny and brilliant.
ReplyDeleteRachel, you are brilliant! I love it!! The Scotch eggs and all the poop were the the best parts!
ReplyDeleteSo much for the envelope, how about the card?
ReplyDeleteI see you have a delightful new follower!
Brilliant. I love the scotch eggs and the pooing animals :-)
ReplyDeleteMade my envelope with your proper address look very poor in comparison, I must try harder!!
I have to get more creative with my addressing. John Grey, hard by the church wall and the Ukranian Village, Trewlaynd with a view of the Gop, Wales.
ReplyDeleteThat kinda made my day, too!
ReplyDeleteOnly two of the animals are pooping? That's not right!

ReplyDeleteLovely!

Happy Christmas from North Carolina.
I can also be very trying Mary. But thank you.
DeleteAnd yet you can be amazing without really trying, Rachel. Is there no end to your talents? =)
DeleteReally!!??!! That's all I had to do for an address??? Next year! :)
ReplyDeleteBrilliant card. Very Rachel.
ReplyDeleteWell done Rachel - fun post today.

ReplyDeleteI did not repeat myself. Your silly system repeated me (again).
ReplyDeleteHow precious the picture is, poop and all. And also, makes my heart feel warm that the address, "House by the Church" gets the mail to you.

Lovely mailman, takes his job seriously.
ReplyDeleteAnd yet we still get other houses post coming through our letterbox and ours frequently goes astray! Perhaps the Welsh postal service is better than in England!
ReplyDeleteThat is so unique and hilarious ! :))
ReplyDeleteWonderful!! It is amazing, such recognizable style!

ReplyDeleteRachel is the one you can always trust:)
ReplyDeleteyou are so lucky to live in a place where your mail can arrive that way. i hope your box arrives soon!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! I guess its because you are famous.
ReplyDelete...and everyone knows where you live.
DeleteAbsolutely love Rachel's envelope...it's truly priceless!
ReplyDeleteThis would make anyone's Christmas a whole lot brighter. I love the excrement, farts, and Scotch eggs theme.
ReplyDeleteThe envelope is utterly adorable!
