A few years ago, I'd receive maybe 100. This year, I have so far received a grand total of 3 + 1 email.
- one from the head mistress of my old school;
- one from the development team at my old school;
- one from my cleaner; and
- an e-mail from Cooke Keidan and Young

I have received one. From my mum.
Cards are utterly pointless wastes of trees.

I sent about 30 but have received one. No, two.Both from people in their seventies. I guess it is the end of the annual process of counting how many people would miss you if you died.
Final tally: pathos.

There was an email from the Council today : follow this link to see which services are operating over the Christmas period.
when you click on the link there is a long list of all the Council departments, and every single one indicating closed Saturday 22 Dec to 4th Jan.
so, basically, go fvck yourselves.

It's a real shame, but quite typical of today's instant gratification generation.

I send plenty of Christmas cards. But tjen, I'm not on Facebook so sometimes it's good to remind people I'm still alive.

Sent none, received none. People know my views on cards in general - I.e. I’m sure there are more environmentally friendly ways to express good wishes to someone rather than killing trees.

One year I accidentally sent my m7 dave one without writing anything in it. He responded in the same vein for my next birthday. this has now been a tradition for 15 years or so.

Heh Wang.
I always send my m8 Davina a blank card with just a picture of a cock, like you see drawn on a toilet wall. Used to be even better when i had the atrociously awful but corporately inoffensive Rufus LLP cards, when I'd cut it out of the spine so the card would open to complete the picture like a shadow puppet.

I send about 70 and we receive about the same. Every year it strikes me as ridiculous but I still send them.
I like the Rufus cut out approach.
