I know many people in the UK seem to send square cards, but I've never been fond of them because they cost extra and I'm CHEAP, or at least frugal. LOVE the envelope, though.<br /><br />I had a similar problem trying to mail Chris's ATC. The clerk told me the envie was too thick and I had to make it a large envelope, which upped the price. Thankfully, I never place stamps on the envie until I know it will go overseas. So, I took it home, removed it from the carefully colored and stamped envie and repacked it. It didn't go out till the next day as a result. <br /><br />What was ironic was, even though I had all the stamps in my hand, when she told me the new charge, she started to create metered mail. I said no thanks and practically grabbed the envie off the scale. I don't have a nice postal person where I live, but at least she hadn't already printed out the metered part. Glad yours went smoother than mine.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683035672152916229.post-47897885245911369282017-07-29T18:18:28.722-04:002017-07-29T18:18:28.722-04:00What a fun envelope.

I stand in line often (in a city of 175,500 we only have two staffed offices)and as I wait the other people talk disrespectfully about the workers loud enough for them to hear. I once spoke up and asked them "What part about don't piss off the people who you are waiting for help from don't you understand?" I wasn't appreciated.... :-/ LOL They have a thankless job with unreasonable expectations. AND they are expected to explain to us the convoluted rules and regulations that even they don't understand....robin cox walshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16036760466156241921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683035672152916229.post-74645354690635404232017-07-29T10:35:24.986-04:002017-07-29T10:35:24.986-04:00Some of these postal clerks are just rude.

I asked for one of those (name escapes me) mailings where you can see that it is delivered.Maybe a tad over doing it, but it was my husband's passport and these days you can't be careful. He decided to lecture me and go on about my choice. None of which is his business. Anyhow, I can relate. Hope it was a good birthday and you are making a weekend out of it.
