@TheTennisTalker @TravelodgeUK Last time I chose that option the room I'd chosen wasn't even available when I arrived! Reception could see I'd chosen a room, but for some reason my choice had disappeared.

@Megan_Mercury @thetrainline Shrewsbury railway station announcements today were saying you could either get the bus from outside the station or tickets are valid via Crewe (and I don't think that takes much longer than via Birmingham).

@letterappsoc @BBCCornwall @PTApostcards How about @thepostalmuseum in London? They would make a nice exhibition.

@thelonningsguy Just up the road from me, almost on the Welsh border. Shame it's no longer there.

@alisonbarrow @DavidHHeadley @DHHlitagency Congratulations!

@thelonningsguy @letterappsoc I've got a few old postcards like that sent to my great grandfather by his daughters saying they would be visiting that evening or the following day. Yet they lived miles away!

July was a month of highs and lows… The highs were the temperatures, and the lows were mostly a result of the temperatures!

@Ink_Spot_Global Parker is one brand I haven't got, though I did buy Mum a vintage one for her birthday a few years back. I love writing letters too. 2 letters and a postcard went out yesterday and I've still got a couple more to write.

[Nikki @nikkiann]

@LoveRetroBTW I had a Sega Master System II (still got it somewhere). I'd asked for a Sega Mega Drive for Christmas, but Mum saw that the Master System II was cheaper. 🤣

@monstrancecock_ My CD and Manchester still say unfulfilled. Very disappointing!
