I’m a restorer too, like your mother, and I know how hard it is and you need a loooot of patience hahaha It really is a great job, and I’m just getting started in this art now. Your mother is a generous soul

Thank you so much for the RR tip! I loved it!!!

Big hug and have a nice Sunday

Check out this way cool idea about space that @geo_ shared with us.

I think you’re gonna like it‼️

Send a postcard to space!

Did you know you can send a postcard to Space and get it sent back to you stamped with “Flown to Space”? I haven’t tried it yet as I’ve only just come across the project. However, it’s free to join (you just pay postage on the card you send) and its open to anyone, anywhere in the world! You can find out more about it here: Blue Origin Club for the Future | Postcards to Space Has anyone heard of this or done it?

Hello, Fellow Post Card lovers! I’m Birdwing7 and happy to be here. Yesterday, I received a very special post card. Special because it was written by a child. It made me happy.

What a boost to our week with 2 new Forum Members‼️

@Birdwing7

Here’s a chuckle 4 ya😁

William Shakespeare came to get vaccinated.

Nurse: Which arm?

Shakespeare: As You Like It

Nurse: Was that painful?

Shakespeare: Much Ado About Nothing

Nurse: You will have to have a second jab.

Shakespeare: Measure For Measure

Nurse: So what do you think of the general awareness with regard to Covid?

Shakespeare: Comedy Of Errors

Nurse: I heard your wife Anne decided to get vaccinated in the company of her friends?

Shakespeare: The Merry Wives of Windsor

Shakespeare: Will I have any adverse effects?

Nurse:. Wait until The Twelfth Night

Where to get a postcrossing meetup card？

I just saw some very beautiful meetup cards. they’re really beautiful. I just wonder where and how to get them? Is there a website to sell them?

[Birdwing7]

Ha! Thanks, Nique, for the chuckle!

Hello from Minnesota, USA! I’m Sonja.

I work at a contract postal unit, a place that has a contract with USPS to provide services on behalf of USPS, but is not owned or managed by USPS. In my case we’re owned by a university, so I spend a lot of my time teaching customers how to send mail. Since I spend most of my time dealing with mail, I’ve developed a love of sending mail and an interest in philately. I also love pens, paper, ink, stickers, and everything stationery related.

I’m enjoying the chance to connect with people through postcards!

@sonja_scribbles

You’ve come to the right place with your of everything stationary!

Your sound like the kind of person who will go the extra mile for her customers at the University postal counter‼️ That will keep them coming back:)

A fellow Postcrosser @Hookedonpostcards is stirring up some interest with a February challenge:

Month of Letters – Postcrossing Challenge – February 2022

The Month of Letters 2022 challenge starts in a few days! What? A month of letters?! What fun! Wanna try it? [image] Here are the rules, rather informal since the first personal Month of Letters challenge: During the month of February, mail at least one item through the post every day. Write a postcard, a letter, send a picture or a cutting from a newspaper… anything goes! Write back to everyone who writes to you. This can count as one of your mailed items. Simple, right? — and really,…

Wanna join in on the fun?

I’m hoping the people we teach to send mail will keep sending mail for years to come, even if they don’t do it through my postal counter. Thanks for the welcome!

Hi all! I’ve been having a lovely time the last 10 days or so exploring the Postcrossing website. It seems like a wonderful place and I am so glad I joined. I’m quite astounded by the sheer number of postcards some people have sent!

I like to visit “Lost Places” buildings and facilities that were abandoned years ago. It is very interesting abandoned factories, hotels, and swimming pools etc. to photograph. Each object tells its own story.

Hello lovely Mail Nerds!

I’m a returning member, after a long break, and I just wanted to say it’s even nicer here than I remember… and, I haven’t even started receiving cards again yet…
