We took some of Sandy's home made Christmas cards to the post office to send to the UK, of which is not a cheap process, however as there was a part in the envelope that was raised they wanted additional money for making it non machinable. So to that we said no as this would be on 6 cards, so we will be using those cards for our US based friends so they won't be wasted and Sandy has made flat cards to post to England. Our friends and family will still get something original and special in the post this Christmas.
