Up
until now, I have been taking QSL cards to the club for collection.
Some of you have taken cards for those who do not attend the club, or
provide envelopes, and I have delivered some myself.
This cannot continue,
as it will not always be possible to leave cards in a public area for
you to collect as and when you next turn up.
Also, the list of
folk not providing envelopes has grown over the last year or so, and
I have found myself having to drive round, dropping cards off for some
of you. The last time I did this, it was just over 5 miles, and took
about 90 minutes.
So, would you PLEASE
provide me with self-addressed envelopes of a suitable size (at least
C5) and durability, and with suitable stamps attached.
It is preferable if you use the self-adhesive stamps marked GY, as these
do not need to be added to if the postage rate goes up.
Please do NOT use small letter envelopes (either C6 or DL), as these
are not big enough to take more than a few cards, or any over-sized
cards.
Please check the Guernsey Post website for the cost of GY stamps for
the current value for 100g of cards.
It is advisable to mark the envelopes 1 of 6, 2 of 6, 3 of 6 etc, with
the
last one marked 'LAST'.
This will remind you to send more envelopes and stamps when you receive
it.
IT IS UP TO YOU TO REMEMBER TO DO THIS!
If you fail to provide envelopes, I will retain the cards for 3 months,
after which time they will be disposed of.
PLEASE NOTE: I will no longer accept a cheque to "cover postage
and envelopes".
In general, this does NOT cover the cost involved, and does not take
into account any rise in postal rates, or even the cost of suitable
envelopes.
Some people are
not on this list, and do not regularly attend club meetings, so could
you ALL please spread the word.
If you have any
queries about this, please email me.
