My Favourite Pieces of Mail (not to be confused with my favourite pieces of male, which would include Johnny Depp, that's for damn sure), in no particular order.
And so my obsession with mail continues. While packing up things in readiness for moving to Japan I've been going through all kinds of terriobilia. The (probably incomplete) list:
Series of Packages from Lex, sent from Vancouver. These always contained sweetness (in written and candy form), cute notepads and various other oddities.
Letter from Helen, sent from Canada, written over a few days while on a train. The fact the letter was written over a few days earns it bonus ponts, as it kind of gives the letter chapters. Which is a good thing. Probably the greatest letter I've ever received, full of band references, witticisms, lots of things to ponder, and nice and long too. Plus extra bonus points for being accompanied by a Silver Jews CD.
Series of Postcards from Laura Llew, sent from various US states. I wasn't expecting a postcard from Laura, so getting the first was one was exciting. And then they just kept on coming! Funny postcards, witty writing. Plus it filled out a nice portion of the US on my Postcard map of the world.
Parcel from Jim, sent from Melbourne. Extreme wittiness (as only Jim can really do), lame puns (again, as only Jim can really do), Magic Gum, Pastel's CD's, Scud Mountain Boys CD, Chills CD. The perfect parcel.
Letter from my Nana, sent from Perth. I was about 6 and had left Puppy (my stuffed toy) at my Nana and Pop's house while visiting. But I didn't know I'd left him their and thought I had lost the little guy. My Nana wrote to say that Puppy was enjoying his stay at their house and that he ws looking forward to seeing me soon. Makes me cry.
Letter from my Grandma, sent from Greenbushes. Just because.

One beautiful night of extra special Guest DJ Action!!!!
Get yourselves and others down to Bar Open on Thursday the 25th of August for what will be a night full of super duperness. Architecture in Helsinki (and not just one member folks, the whole damn lot of them!) will be spinning their favourite tunes from 9pm til late. What is the charge you ask? It's 5!
Will there be 8 songs playing at once? Will they all fit into the DJ booth? There’s only one way to find out…
