Autumn Approaches…
Poem and Illustration by Janet Broughton
Although we state no emails or electronic communication, we do have the necessity to use it when you first sign up. A quick and easy form for you to complete so that we can add your details to our Database and for us to merge them with our existing Members. We can then get the List out to you almost immediately. Click the button above – Become a Pen Pal – and it will take you to the necessary form
The complete Mailing List will be sent to you, electronically bearing in mind speed and our member’s locations across the Globe but if you prefer you can ask us to send it in the Post and we will happily do so. At the end of each mont, the Newsletter will inform you who has signed up recently or you can just wait and ask for details on an
“ ad hoc” basis.
Our List grows daily. We are always amazed and surprised at the location of our new Pen Pal members.
Don’t worry, we will keep in touch with you once a month to update you with news; new members and what else is happening in the amazing world of “writing letters!”
I forgot how exciting it was to wait for the Postman again. Takes me back to being a teenager!

Its been great forming and growing the Pen Pal Club. All of us who are involved in this project never thought it would take off as it had. From a small group of friends spread across the world during “ Covid Lockdown” we seem to have made new ones; formed links with people we never would have and started to appreciate the importance of keeping in touch with friends, new and old and the benefits of writing and receiving letters.
JACKIE – having always loved the thought of posting a letter to people and probably wearing out such pleasure on friends and family and then neighbours, she thought she would expand her network and start writing to random people. Now she is complaining that there is no time to write to people any more – but, as she says,” it’s a very good complaint!”
CHRIS – lives in Turkey and can be found playing around with the database and keeping it up to date on a very regular basis. He has found the simple pleasure in writing a letter again and eagerly rushes down to the Post Box to see what’s waiting for him
PEBBLES – Dog Meister Extraordinaire. She is responsible for making us take our regular walks on the beach which in turn gives us great ideas for topics for our letters. Each walk is a minimum of thirty minutes – that’s a lot of topics to cover in that time
TILLY – Office Manager. Nothing more to say

How we learn to love something, enjoy the moment but leave it for others
