You risk very well not to receive the letter because to my knowledge, the system doesn't make a difference. If somebody replied to your post in the thread you posted, or if the person responded to you personally, I missed out. I think sometimes a message is clearly addressed to you, to a specific person, and sometimes it's just a general participation in the discussion, and that makes a big difference
I had a conversation with voice other Periscope at the same time as I am filming, but it would have been nice. Didn't work. It doesn't matter at the time. And yes, about writing and all that. Yes. Thank you for your anecdotes too. Yes. We wouldn't pass a lot of letters to others because there was too much danger that somebody could read it on the way. But perhaps you just meant to have a girlfriend pass your love letter on to a boy
At some point, the mail became less personal. It became less something I wanted to deal with and so many people on the Christmas list. And yeah, I don't know. But I really like other smell. I really enjoy this topic. It brought me back to a time when I was a kid and going to the mailbox when it was a certain time of year or a certain time of something meant something to me. And I think my kid missed that

It's containing a load, or I thought it was containing a load, but it turns out that it's simply a heavy lorry that's built to go slowly. There is a man in shorts, black shorts, black runners, black hat, black headphones on white shirt. And he's walking down the Hill. He looks as if he, oh, there's a man in a blue jacket and a backdrop, and he's running down the Hill

And the last time I received a letter, that itself is a big topic because letters have played a big part in my life, probably have for a lot of people who are over a certain age. So I just wanted to say, well, to you and to anyone who listens to this that it wasn't my intention to change the topic. I think this is a great topic
Okay, but anyway, thank you for responding. I'll still have to check the other responses. I'm a bit late on that. Happily enough. Robin told me that there were some messages in answers to my start of conversation. To my swell. So trying to catch up. Bye. Take care. Nice to meet you, by the way. So I'm Zaki from Switzerland and supporting a dying out language. I'm language staying out in Switzerland. All around Montblan. Yes. Anyway
Hello, Paul. I'm coming back to the topic. So you said letter writing was very important part of your life. Presize simple question would be, did you keep these letters and second question, do you sometimes read them again? And yes, that's one important question. How do we do that? Or some people here in the thread rather spoke about these nice memories they've had
Speaking to Paul, I remembered or I just remembered these letters I had I could mention two love affairs had over letters. The one was I had met, let's say, got to know beautiful Italian girls in Genova on the beach. But she was just part of a group of girls, and we just used to lie down as a group on the beach and bathe together and in the evening sometimes just walk around the camping up to the pub

We usually make a card that takes months of preparation for each other's birthday and have a heartfelt message in other as well that's either Typed or handwritten letter in addition to like a whole crafting with it. So that alone is a special gift, and I consider that other best gift that I receive each year from him. So I wish more people would do that. I don't often receive letters from anyone other than my brother
