You've never sent a letter before??? (Even our Prime Minister has sent a 3 letters...)

How did you thank your Grandparents for Christmas presents?
How did you write to distant relatives about someone's death? (With a black-bordered envelope so they know to sit down before reading it)
How did you send romantic letters to your prospective partner? (Ideally with a pressed flower, or at least some little token for them to keep close to their heart)

Seriously, there are times when a letter is more appropriate than email / text etc.

I'm helping sort out my late mother-in-law's home, and we've come across hundreds of old letters, that fill in a lot of gaps about family history, hidden secrets, life in years gone by, some of it going back a century. No phone SIM is going to keep all that stuff, the "cloud" will run out of backup space some time, your CDs / DVDs will no longer be accessible - paper (so long as kept dry!) will stay around...
