Re: Pen Pals?
I have always enjoyed writing letters and when I was a young thing (just after pens replaced quills) I had six or seven pen-pals (male and female) in various parts of the world. Yes, Dave, a couple of them were soldiers stationed away from home, doing their National Service. One did visit my family and me, came for the weekend. Nice young man but no romantic interest. I got a lot of enjoyment reading first-hand about other people's lives and I hope my letters to them were of a similar enjoyment.
Have to confess I also composed letters for a couple of my friends to send to their boyfriends who were in the forces as they never knew what to write. Talk about Barbara Cartland, I really did the romance bit. Must have worked as the romances continued....
