Paying The Christmas Card Dues

It is what happens when you have had a couple of lean years sending out Christmas cards. Last year I sent out a very minimal amount, and as for 2003, I think I was okay, but the latter part of that year is basically just an emotional blur - Christmas card sending memories were the least that I had to remember then. I think 2002 was my last good year for sending cards out.

So I have to repay my dues with the Christmas card writing thing - and what with three weeks to go until the day itself have been writing up the overseas cards. Overseas including New Zealand, my homeland, so there were quite a few to get through - err, up to 23 already, with Australian cards still to write up.

One of the cards I am sending is a long shot, a friend whose email has seemingly been on the blink since I saw him in January - I keep getting return incorrect email address messages when I do send through. I know the town where he lives and have gone on a hope and a prayer with his middle initial - nothing ventured nothing gained. He does have a wife that doesn't like any of his former school friends basically, but will see how we go...

More later
