No, I’m not taking on any bets and certainly not going to do Michael Palins effort in half the time…
It is all about this envelope I received earlier this week: one of the orders for the Bosozoku Style Coloringbook than was returned to sender. Not that it is that odd, but what was odd was the state of the envelope:
Around the world in 40 days
It went all the way to New Zealand (about on the opposite site of the earth for me) and back in 40 days! I do use thick and heavy envelopes with a solid back to send it to the buyers who are not on the continent. And miraculously the contents survived well enough to be resent to the buyer (with a new address) so it was a good thing to take those precautions! :)
