Not a joke - this happened.
Yesterday, what looked like a birthday card came through the letterbox with the rest of our (correctly delivered) mail.
It was:
- posted in Croydon
- addressed to a Mrs J L**** - my wife's first name begins with an S and our surname begins with an A
- to a house in a street with a name beginning Se**** - our street name begins with St
- to a village/town with a name beginning Sh - our town name begins Ha
- that village/town is "Nr Stratford-on-Avon" - we are part of Greater London
- the destination county is Warwickshire - we were once part of what was then Middlesex
- to a Post code begining CV37 - our Post Code begins UB
However, they did get one thing right - the House Number!!!![Wow :-wow :-wow](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Will be posting the card onto the lady this afternoon - hope she gets it in time![Smile :) :)](https://www.satellites.co.uk/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png)
PS: part of the franking on the envelope says "Royal Mail supporting youth mental health with Action for Children" - I think they need to look "closer to home"
