Tucked away in my Ebay box are a few old postcards sharing snippets of people’s lives.
This one is from Muriel. Postmark: Farnborough Hants 7:30pm 20 Oct 1965
Dear Ma
arrived about 8.30. Stan and (I can’t work out this name) were waiting for me. Weather lovely – sunshine now a little fog this morning
Muriel
Not exactly mind blowing in content but it has an innocent charm.
It would hardly be a text message these days, but Muriel has bought the card, written it, in pen, bought a stamp and posted it. All to report to Ma the weather conditions and that she’s arrived safe and well!
I like that….
