Re: Do you still send them
I usually send 40-50 charity cards, mainly to people that I don't see very often - I think it's nice to remember folk at least once a year.

It does become daft, sending cards to people you haven't seen for twenty years, and are unlikely to see again.
Damn. Why am I so popular, with 224 cards to write?

225.
Unless we just agree to not send each other any.

Re: Do you still send them
I only send a few now, as between many friends and workmates we make a donation to charity instead

Re: Do you still send them
I can't remember when I last sent one ... unless you count the ones that come with the stockings I buy for the animals.

Re: Do you still send them
I only tend to do cards for people that are close to me like my parents & my partner, & then to older relatives & friends of the family that kind of expect I suppose.

Re: Do you still send them
Christmas Cards are so expensive here in Tenerife so I bought mine in Matalan whilst I was in Ossy last month. I usually post around twenty to England every year but the list seems to be getting less. Folk seem to forget you when you move abroad.
I do have a 'local list' that reaches around fifty though. They are all done and dusted without 'im indoors going anywhere near them.
