About 9 years ago there was a postcard sharing 'event, where where members PM’d their postal addresses to other members and we all sent postcards to each other. I can neither find the thread where we discussed this nor see any PMs from back then. Does anyone here remember this? I just found a bunch of postcards and would love to share them with the original senders. ---

You’re searching skills outmatch mine (though the 120 wait between searches never makes it easy) 🙂 Thanks Earl. I’ll take a look at the thread and PM some people to see if they’re still alive ! Would bumping that thread lead to it being closed? Not sure of the rules around reviving such an old thread. ---

I do indeed remember the thread and the exchange. I sent **No Clue Boy** a postcard of a warped and twisted Eiffle Tower. I also told him what was a secret at the time – that Zeldar and I are married. That was fun for me! That may be the only postcard that I sent from my trip to Paris.
