Yes, you'd think out of the 92 UK mail artists listed here there would be one or two that would respond to such a request Martha. Sadly the majority seem to be mail artists in name only . Responses to my recent projects have been less that enthusiastic - well, hardly any to be brutally frank!  Its a sad state of affairs and not a patch on the heady days of the 80's and 90's when address listings would feature a dozen or so regular correspondents who were quite prolific.

I would like to expand my UK list of friends, would anybody want to correspond with me? Please let me know soon, I have something to send before the end of the year.

I understand, and there is another covid mutation on the offing. If you do come to London please do contact me, I am 20 minutes from Victoria and from there I can get anywhere very quickly.

October seems ages yet although the weeks seem to rush by at an alarming rate!  Hopefully can get down to London at somepoint this year. Still a bit wary of going on trains full of sniffly sneezy folk!

Does anyone recognize this Mail Artist living in London?

That is so funny just what I need. Trying to buy International stamps on line as usual. No way! Only parcels! I do not know if to cry or tear my hear off. I shall do both to be on the safe side...

The nearest we got once was sending a pigeon ( albeit a plastic decoy) through the mail to Hazel's Mom. We left his head emerging through the parcel so he "could breathe" - we didn't want the RSPCA  after us!  He arrived safe and sound with a coo from the postie who delivered him back in the 80's when sending anything seemed a cheap and cheerful affair!

I have thought about carrier pigeons. There are a few nice tame ones that come to my garden. I will have a word with them. Will offer an increase in  peanuts.

Martha - a sad state of affairs all round.  Seems like the death knell to me too.  Thank goodness for the internet although could go the same way - prices going up for broadband and other services.  Carrier pigeons anyone?
