Ok so, similar to the: you can invite 5 people to dinner (living or dead) who would you pick?
But instead:
You can send / receive postcards from ANY 5 people living or dead, who would you pick?
This is just a fun thing…I wass just sitting here writing postcards and asked myself that question so I figured I should share with this wonderful community!
My picks: Edgar Allen Poe, Queen Victoria, 2 Grandmoms, & Bradley Nowell (Sublime)
John Lennon
Ernest Hemingway
Scrooge McDuck (I know he is not real )
Rachel Green from Friends (not real again )
Steve Rogers a.k.a Captain America (not real again )
Erich Kästner - one of my all-time favourite authors
Donald Trump - just to see what someone like him would write and what card he would choose
Queen Elizabeth
my great-aunt who has been dead for almost 40 years now
Elvis Presley - to give to my husband who’s a great fan
Oh dear, no blue blood in my veins!
And as I wrote, my great-aunt has been dead for many years (though I still miss her dearly) whereas the Queen is still very much alive, far as I know
J. Tolkien - I would be honored to receive a postcard from him
Princess Diana
Gabrielle Chanel
Martin Fourcade - French biathlete
Winnie the Pooh (child character))
I liked this idea)) All the time now I go over in my head the persons from whom I want to receive a postcard and send in return)
@anbai9 I like the Jane Austen And Oscar Wilde those would be so interesting @wurzelsofie I like your varied list…Queen E I would love to see her handwriting!! @Nadiika Good idea with Pooh he always has the most clever sayings and Princess Di too! @Yuyi0420 Yes Dali is a great one!
Oh no. I took way too long to pick mine, there’s just so many I’d have in mind! I finally settled on people in more recent history otherwise it’d be full of ancient names lol
My final list is, in no order:
Bruce Lee.
Daniel Eddings, my favorite author.
Blanche Monnier…
My partner’s deceased grandmam.
Alice Roosevelt Longworth, US president Teddy Roosevelt’s daughter.
This is an incredible question. I choose…
An old friend (TK), old friend (RJ) , Arnold Schwarzenegger, Christopher Lloyd, Dr. Oz
To stay hopeful about this I chose all living people.
Thought-provoking question, coleandjojo! Here’s a first draft of my list.
George Booth ~ for a cartoon
Emily Dickinson ~ for a poem
Amelia Earhart ~ for the postmark
Martin Luther King, Jr. ~ for the dream
Willie Nelson ~ for a song
