Good morning peevers.

I have to tootle off to pick up Miss J today. She's home for Christmas and as she's away from Uni for a month needs help with her luggage.

Train or car? Hmm.

Following on from a previous peeve wondering who sent that card to you, here is the reverse issue that has been plaguing Mrs J this afternoon- what is so and so's address?

I still have my trusty Filofax which I prefer to electronic alternatives and Mrs J was looking through her old address book, with its many scribblings and amendments.

So how about you my dear peevers?

The POTD is;

What's their address?

It's that thing kind of like a skirt that women wear. Men wear trousers. Or kilts. Don't call a kilt a skirt or dress or you'll get what for!

I've made it real easy for people to remember my address - moved to a country where I don't have one it's all metes and bounds here.

Ha Ha well keeping up with kids who move a lot, it can be troublesome. Thankfully I think DD is settled for quite a while.

In days of past, most everyone had a phone (landline) and everyone was in the telephone directory with an address listed. You could always look up someone’s address in the white pages……

A few of the pages in my hard-copy address book are a mess of scribbles and amended addresses. Some people move around a lot, and it's hard to keep up with their current addresses! If I'm not certain of someone's address when I send out my Christmas cards, I'll not send one because I'd hate to have wasted the postage if the card was undeliverable.
