Welcometoreal
Included in my welcome pack are about 50 Freepost envelopes for sending in my stuff. I'm not 100% sure how Freepost envelopes work, but this one seems to have a code, and I figure that as Royal Mail are paying I should be allowed to send in anything I like.
Only problem is that even the largest envelope they've given me is only A4, but my latest piece, the Interactive Tablet edition, is bigger than A4. So I'm going to send it in this padded envelope, which is a little larger.
Ideally I don't want to have to pay any postage, but I may actually have to take this down to the Post Office because I doubt very much I'm going to find a postbox with a slot big enough to take a 40cm piece of wood somehow...

[UPDATE - The Post Office did take this and send it for free. Awesome :-)]

[UPDATE - The rest of the post, in the freepost pre-printed envelopes arrived and this one didn't. If you're thinking of using the FREEPOST address, it may not work, let me see if I can confirm it somehow. I'm going to send 50 postcards to the freepost address tomorrow and if they get through then I'll say it worked. ya know. Not one. 50. Why not. Gotta be sure right...

Stripygoose, have you seen Plot 45 tonight? They've upgraded the plot to be TWO cages and put it in the middle of the gallery! They know a good thing when they see one!

And of course it's plot of the day too.
:-)
See you tomorrow for postcard presenting fun

plot 45 is streets ahead - wow! did you notice plot 29 has cottoned on to the fiveness of five?

Yes indeed it is. Plot 45 is the only one actually receiving anything daily, not to mention the only one receiving from all over the world.
Admit it Stripygoose, you are plot 29 in disguise aren't you...?
