    I received these beauties today. One from me went out this morning, and another will go out tomorrow.

    1 out today. A love note to my princess is all ready & will be mailed to her @ work tomorrow.

    As soon as the audience begins to participate, any actual content is lost in the resulting chaos and cacophony.
    At that point, all you can do is laugh and enjoy the descent into debasement.

    Another 8 out yesterday & 1 more this morning - after buying a heap of international stamps.
    More Royal family pictures !!!!!!! I'm sure our PostOffice thinks only old ladies who read Women's Weekly post letters these days, not old farts who'd prefer to see their letters adorned with wombats, galahs or even spangled drongos.

    So close to the bottom of the reply pile.

    Ohhhhhh, I want a spangled drongo. Is that really a thing? Because it sounds like a very cool thing, whatever it is.

    The spangled drongo is the only drongo* to be found in Australia. "Drongo" is Australian slang for "idiot", possibly referring to the bird's uninhibited and sometimes comical behaviour as it swoops and perches in search of insects, small birds and occasionally, small skinks.
    Whilst this bird is often silent, it sometimes makes astonishingly loud, complex and entertaining calls that may sound like a "sneeze".


    * that should read only flying drongo found in Australia. There are plenty of the non-flying variety around.

    Those crazy eyes would look great on a stamp.

    Pretty idiot! :-) I agree, that would be a great stamp, this guy staring out at you from the corner. Like I dare you to open your mail.

    Sometimes if a letter comes in at the right time (kind of right place right time thing), I'll pen a response right away. Your letters usually inspire me to do that, along with a few others. Thats not to say they are better than other letters in my to-reply pile. It just depends on what hits me to write that day I guess This time it was yours that came to me at the right time to respond right away! No rush on a response. I know sometimes I can reply really fast and others worry about taking too long. I'm not bothered by delays

    With the transition into another month, I have a new set of charts. Life does its best to keep things interesting and I am doing what I can to keep sending out replies. Thank you all for everything you have sent, it means a lot.

    On to the charting:

    Kinda sad looking on my side. 15 in, 7 out. First time in three months that the in, was higher then the out.


    As a result, my reply pile is headed in the wrong direction.
