Summary
I’m beginning to wonder about the Boston mail system. You don’t seem to receive the letters I write or they are so delayed that their contents seem irrelevant. Mail to other USA destinations always travels without problems. Although I have noted that mail to and from more distant places such as New Zealand, Japan, and S. Africa takes less time to travel. In my more paranoid moments I imagine the more fanatic of the Irish Patriots – who no doubt run the Boston mail – striking their blow against Cromwell by blighting the mail from England. Let’s hope this one runs the gauntlet.
