How many Christmas postcard can I receive?
I have never had one Christmas. When it is coming, I often think it is a special day for the people who will have it.
Please send me email or PM on Cellar and I will tell you my address and email. You guys can send me postcard by snail mail or ecard on line. So I can have a special day this year as you will do. I will reply after I get greetings from you. The first one will be XOXO. He has given me much help in the past time.
December 25th is Christmas, Billy. Some people send their Christmas Cards right after Thanksgiving, which is the fourth Thursday in November(Nov 23rd this year), but most mail them in the last couple weeks before Christmas.
I wonder how long it takes a card to get there by mail? Send me your address and I'll put you on my card list, buddy. :D
It takes about 2 weeks from the USA to China by snail mail.
I sent you a PM Billy. Happy Holidays!
I PM'd you too.
Please post a picture of all of the cards you get after Christmas!
Thanks for all your photography, I've enjoyed it.

Am sending you a PM - a Christmas card is the least I can do in return for the pleasure your pictures have given.
ding! You have a message from me too! We get Christmas west of the Pecos, too, y'know.
You (and certainly your postman!) will probably regret starting this thread ... ;)
Thank you guys. You are so kind. I will try my best to reply you. I cant rely all of you if I get postcards from everybody on CELLAR.
Please write down your CELLAR ID if you send me postcard or ecard. Merci!
I would be very happy to send you a Christmas Card!!

Groan. :rolleyes:
I'm going to have to figure out how much postage goes on a Christmas card to China... :)
Billy,
Forgive my ignorance. Is it possible that you will get into trouble from your government for receiving lots of Christmas cards?

He told me two weeks. ;)

No any problem. Go ahead!

1 oz is $.84
Me, too! I love this! Thanks for a great idea, Billy! I'll PM you right now!
I'm in! Merry Christmas, Billy!
great idea. I would love to send a card! :)
Thank you guys. Today I will send a postcard to XOXO.
2007 is a Chinese pig year. So you can see the pig on the postcard.
Your Christmas card is going in the mail today, Billy!
[size=1]Don't forget it takes at least two weeks under normal circumstances, people--gotta get moving if it's going to get there before the 25th.[/nag][/size]
I got Billy's card. 2007, The year of the pig.
Unlike UT's pigs, that dive and swim and race each other for Oreos, this is a studious pig. Hitting the books, sweat on his brow and furiously taking notes with his left hoof.
I'd guess he's working hard to pass his English proficiency exam..... so he can get a visa to study abroad....from the English all over his shirt.;)
This is the post box where I posted Billy's card yesterday. I live in half of a former Post Office so all I have to do is lean over the wall to post my mail!
The second pic is the view across my front garden towards the post box.
PS Love the Pig!

Wow, what a neat, serene looking place. Right now I'd like to jump on a plane to another part of the world and get the hell out of this oppressive little town, state, country.
Sigh...
Thanks. I just came back from Zhouzhuang, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province today. I will post the pitcures soon.

Thanks. Please tell me your addess and I would like send you one pig postcard.
Ours are still being assembled. Lil Pete did the drawing and Pete is putting them together. I hope we get done in time for Christmas in China!
Hey Billy, did you get mine yet? I sent it before Thanksgiving. It's a postcard from Washington D.C.
You'll take pictures of everything you get and post them here, won't you?
I'm a little late joining in, but I'd be happy to send you a Christmas card, Billy! I'll pm for your address.
Merry Christmas!
Billy,
I don't send out Christmas cards, but if you PM me your address I will send you a
Hanukkah card or 'Happy Holidays' card, your choice.

Thanks Glaff. Coworker informed this morning that your Christmas card came to my office. I have not seen it because I am still on business trip.
I will scan the postcard and post here.
I am back office. It is so nice to see your cards. Until today, I got 6 postcards & 2 packages. Thanks.
Cool! That's my postcard on the top. It's the christmas tree by the White House.
Mine is the one with three identical stamps side-by-side!
I don't think mine is there (in which case the Royal Mail sucks compared to the US Postal Service). I'm pretty sure mine had a blue Airmail sticker next to the stamps, which none of the cards seem to have.
Maybe you'll get it by next Christmas Billy :(
That looks awfully like a package from me at the top there, but no sign of my card yet ... both posted the same day!:neutral:
I'll just send you mine now..
Happy Holidays!
Cards come.
Island card with a wonderful Christmas Pudding.
Wish
Thank you very much. It is nice to get your card from the other side of world.
Merry Christmas eveybody.
By the way, Billy. I read today that Bush hasn't gotten around to finishing the report on Iraq, because he's busy reading Marley and Me. :lol:
Merry Christmas Billy - I'm so glad it arrived.
Billy I think I have e-mailed you and would be delighted to send a card when your address arrives. I love getting and sending them and will be happy to send to anyone else who'd like one.
I got two cards from the same place today.
Thank you.
Got one card from Scotland. Thanks

US Postal hasn't gotten mine there either apparently. :sniff:
Merry Christmas, Billy! I'm glad mine made it to you!
I'll own up to the Christmas Pud, the island post card and the Christmas card from Arran. Merry Christmas Billy!
Billy--the US post office assured me that you would get mine in time for Xmas---I hope you get it, sweetie! (sadly, i didn't send a cheesy card--though I wanted to.)
Thanks for the card Billy! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Ah, that's a nice one, limey. :thumbsup:
That is a really nice idea. It would be even better to do this as a sort of charity, I think. Have you guys seen the PostSecret blog?
Charity? We ain't got no stinkin charity. We drive people that want charity off the board onto the ice floes, to die a wretched death. :cool:
He's probably explaining Christmas Cards from Around the World to the Secret Police.
Billy does a lot of traveling, around China, to different supplier's plants. He quality checks the pieces they've subcontracted to these plants and OKs them for shipment. A lot of the time he has no internet access or it's closely monitored.
He be back. :D
Happy New Year, everybody! Thank your kind concerns!
The international connection was not good because of Taiwan earthquake and had a bad new year.
In X'MAS season I was on business trip. My roommate forgot to lock the door of our house when he went out to maeket on Dec. 26. Our home was stolen. I lost my watch, money, mp3 player, swiss knife.... very sad. And I got a cold for that and slept on bed two days.
I come back on biz again after 3 days at home. I did not have time to check your cards in my office. I think they should come. Maybe I will come back this week. I will keep you posted.
Hope everybody have a happy and lucky 2007!
Billy, I am so sorry to hear about what happened to your things.
Hope that things improve for you as the old year ends and the new one begins!
Happy Year of the Boar!
Oh no! That's terrible Billy, I'm really sorry. I hope things get better for you soon.
Billy that is bad news about your robbery. Glad you are back and hope you are feeling better.
Thanks.
It is said that good comes after bad.
Ouch....sorry you started the year badly. No wait, make that ending the year badly.
February 18th is New Year's Day, for you. Yes, I had to Google it. :blush:
The good, that follows bad, does not have to wait, it can start now and continue.
Are you going home to your parents, for New Year's holiday, this year?

I plan to have the Chinese New Year with families in my homwtown this year. In the time, the train ticket is very difficult to get. The air tickets doesn't have discount. Anyway, I will tyr to go home. My parents miss me very much.
My parents miss me very much.
It is good to be missed. Sorry about the robbery but at least only things were lost. take care
Billy, tell your boss, you are taking the company plane for New years. :lol:
I just backed office after a long time. Nice to see your cards. Thanks.
You all warmed/warm/and will warm my heart.
Have you read the book, Billy? Or too busy traveling? :confused:
Have you read the book, Billy? Or too busy traveling? :confused:
Yes. I read slowly, just to Chapter 4. It is very funny. I like it very much. Thanks.
I'm pretty bummed out that my card didn't show up. Must be a backlog at Homeland Security.
Hey! You got mine! The ice-skating santa one! Glad you got it, Billy. How many so far?
Thanks. I posted all the postcards that I received. I think the China Post sometimes makes some mistakes. They cant send out letters well and lose our letters, especially the letters in English. Don't be sad, Griff. I think it will come.

I hope you have a really good one, love from Caz, an old Boar of 1947
