It’s been so long since I have written (and mailed) an actual ink-on-paper lick-a-stamp kind of letter, that I almost forgot how to do it. It’s been years. I pay all of my bills online (and have, the better part of a decade). Cards etc. are delivered personally. Correspondence is via email or iChatAV or RSS.
I just had to send a letter as part of a travel claim, and it took me a while to remember how to do it. I remember waaay back to my high school days, where they teach you about the format of letters, and how you put salutations etc… I wound up falling back on MS Word’s letter wizard. Thanks, clippy (you evil sack of bits!)
If I had to guess, I would say we likely have a whole generation of young’ns who couldn’t write and mail a letter to save their lives. Sadly, I think I’m slowly falling into that category

Stamp?
Stamp! – Its what you do with your feet when you realise you’ve posted the letter without sticking that little receipt thing in the top right corner to show you’ve paid for delivery…
Did you remeber the stamp D’Arcy?
