O/T, O/C: Christmas cards.

Those of you that ever wrote them: does any of you write them any more?

I mean *card cards* - not the souped-up animated gif onliners with jingles even cheesier than the old prefab greetings.

Or other online greeting. Or email.


I've just about finished the ones I still write. But I have to fight a bit of inertia these days. Partly the booming cost of postage (£1 a pop to Europe from here, for example), partly the recognition I've actually rarely much to say in a card that I haven't said or stuck in an email sometime during the last months/weeks (or days, depending).


Big Scrooge potential here.

But anyone have a view?

Depending on the year, my bookie and my accountant.

Usually send about a dozen at most - old friends that we've exchanged cards with for years.

Never sent them, luckily the wife is into all that. Or not.

cheaper than presents. still send a few around
