    Wow, that's awesome! I'm curious...so are you going to do anything special with your letter, like frame it?
    Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy...but here's my letter. So write me, maybe?

    If you're an InCo pen pal, please PM me first if you'd like to write to me. Thanks!

    Thumbs up Another letter received from Buckingham Palace

    Of course it is the wrong last name and the wrong address, but heck! she's only a Lady-in-Waiting, not The Queen. The Queen would have gotten everything right! Btw the Lady's name is Jennifer Gordon-Lennox. Real person. Saw a picture of her online greeting Hillary Clinton.

    I wonder if this is as close as the rest of us will get to a written response to the Queen if we wrote to her. Not really liking the way Jennifer picked one letter, tacked on "and friends" and addressed everyone with it, though. I understand not being able to personally respond to each letter, but I'd think there would be a better solution than this?

    Wonderful. I wonder if it would work with European prime ministers, famous CEO's and all kinds of "unreachable" people...

    They must come across some very interesting and bizzare correspondence.

    Jennifer (Mrs. Michael) Gordon-Lewis has been on the job for 39 years. No doubt she has some tales to tell... but won't.
