Writing letters is something I did a lot in the 1970s and 1980s, but it's fallen by the wayside with email.
ReplyDeleteemail is too short. Letters can be several pages long.
DeletePessimist on politics. Me too - politicians should never be trusted. I don't think I've written a personal letter for years (though I have to banks, solicitors etc.).
ReplyDelete:o)
Cheers

Shortly after 1986. Wow. Of course, being rural we were late to everything. I still have DSL!
ReplyDeletei only remember the approximate date because my friend died in 1986 and it was shortly after that that I learned about the internet and thought how sad it was that he never had the chance to explore.
DeleteAha..a fellow Aquarius!
ReplyDeleteYea....to sleep all night... Would that be nice!
