Celebration Cards

When I was a soldier, well I still am, but when I was away, there was nothing better than receiving letters and cards. If made you feel like you had a connection to the sender and were incredibly welcome to receive. The art has gone I think sadly.

I think card days are slowly going. I get them for close family birthdays but that’s it now

I don’t receive cards from my distant relatives like aunts and uncles but I feel it is important to send them to all close friends and family no matter what age!

I only send & receive cards to people I'm close too these days, everyone else I just send a message.

This year we only got about 20% of the xmas cards we normally get. I cant say im dissapointed because i just put them in the bin. I remember when i was young there would be xmas cards hung all over the walls The only cards i buy now are close family and best friends for birthdays and my wife for valentines, mothers day, anniversary etc - she loves a card

I still buy and send cards for celebrations but to be honest I am not too fussed about receiving them as they only end up in the bin a few days later (I don’t keep them)

I'm not bothered about cards to be honest. I found one when I was packing up to move for my 40th birthday that I hadn't even opened. I went on holiday for it and just put it in the cupboard for when I got back home and forgot to open it. Never even missed it even though it was from a best friend.
