People get all kinds of things in the mail so I thought this thread should have some interesting posts.

I probably shouldn't have started it on a Sunday but well, it's Monday tomorrow.

Anyway, on Friday I received three hair towels (like the kind hairdressers use, and some pizza vouchers. The vouchers went into recycling.

I got a mystery package that had been delivered to my address in error. The postman clearly didn't read the address properly. It was intended for a property a few miles away with the same house number but on a different road. I put it into a postbox, hopefully the intended recipient will get it and it won't come back to me again.

Every 2 weeks I dump the contents of my box into the recycling bin. (its all advertising and "junk" mail). Nothing addressed to me specifically comes by post - and hasn't for years. The post box it more a nuisance than anything else.

All we ever get in the mail are bills and junk.
