"Postcard finally arrives 121 years after it was sent

An undelivered postcard has finally reached its intended destination - about 121 years after it was first popped off in the post.

The Christmas-themed card was delivered to Swansea Building Society’s Cradock Street branch last week even though it was originally sent in 1903 - so…

Royal Mail said a postbox may be temporarily closed due to wildlife infestation, and advised customers to use the nearest convenient one.

Greetings old friend! I would like to send you a boring postcard, but Kyrgyzstan requires that every piece of mail be sent in a standard government-issued envelope without marks on the outside of it. We aren't allowed to send naked postcards. Is it okay if I put one in an envelope and send it to you?

Valentin, I have learnt that it is now almost impossible to mail anything from Moscow to France because of the sanctions (resulting from the terrible war). Only the most ordinary letters and postcards can be exchanged, nothing more. For this reason, I will send You vintage postcards in small batches, it will look like a regular postal item in an envelope. I'll start with city views in winter - St Petersburg (still with a communist name), winter, boring postcards...

Valentin, I checked Your address on Google Map, and saw that there is a different house next to Your house, with a plaque with Molière's name on it. Please tell me why the plaque is there.
