That’s odd. Do you have my surname?

(I have actually got at least one letter from buffy addressed “Michael V”. And several from various grandchildren addressed “Nanna and Pop”.)

I did use your surname and Mr and Mrs. And your street name. I didn’t use your first name so I’ll use that next time. And then the lightbulb will go off for your postmaster I hope. Unless you want me to send it to Nanna and Pop :))))

Hmmm. That’s most odd.

There are no postal deliveries to street addresses here, but the Post Office people know us well, and Mrs V calls in to check the mail at least once a week.

Our street number is 13.

Ahh. I was told the street number was 25. But they should have known your name. Never mind, I’ll resend, and can also put in the tomatillo seeds this time round.
And sourdough starter if you need it. Though I am having problems after a very promising start. The culture bubbled on the first day, then doubled and a bit more the second, and I was sure I was on a winner. Third day it sat and sulked and then got a brown film over it. So yesterday I did lots of reading about what I might be doing wrong, and measured everything carefully. Today it has not grown much but it is bubbling again.
