Still awaiting cards in the mail. At this time of year, NZ Post gets behind in international mail (working at Te Puni Mail Centre last Christmas, stuff that was suppose to arrive early morning for sorting and dispatch that day came during the day. It is because the International Mail Centre in Auckland is swamped, and the cards/parcels are manually sorted). I'm sure they will arrive eventually.

You're expecting his card like a dry field in need of water (sorry if my comparison sounds silly :DD).

Would you like to receive a card from me too ? I would love to send you one, which will probably come to you some time early next year.

Thank you! Your card should reach you between 3 - 10 working days, as an estimate. Because it was sent the 24th, it might be still waiting to be sent from NZ (Friday, Saturday, and today (Monday) are public holidays).

I just received a card from Sophia. Thank you Sophia so much for the lovely poem and your wishes.
That your postcard picture is told to be painted by handicapped people really makes your exchanged gift more meaningful to me in this season. Thank you for that too. :smile:

@Silicon Waffle -- received your card today! Thank you!

(To be honest, I didn't know NZ Post was doing delivery today, given it is a public holiday.)
