Although our local Postman is a nice chap, I can think of a lot wrong with La Poste in general. Lack of customer service, very slow deliveries, extremely expensive to send parcels to the UK… now I’ll add heartless little bastards to that list too!

this particular one really sucks.

I know in the UK you hear of kids sending a letter to Santa in Lapland at Christmas. They have a service that sends a reply to kids “as if it comes from Santa”.

It’s great for the kids and good PR into the bargain. It would not cost La Poste much to do the same sort of thing in cases like this. Perhaps then we’d all see them in a different light.

Our constant moan about our replacement facteur mixing our mail up with the neighbours (my parents in law) pales into insignificance compared to the disappointment that this young girl must feel.

Dear French girl, Your letter to your Mama made worldnews… Really many people worldwide shares the pains you are feeling now.You are missing her so much… I hope that all people in this world can comfort you. And your Mama? Im sure she knows what all happened. She loves you very much and deep in her heart she feels happy many people in the world is talking and thinking of you now. I wish you all the best in future and remember many people love you.

wonder what they do with the ones to Santa?

Probably file them in the nearest wheelie-bin for recycling…
