Ladies of letters

I’ve been reminiscing with an old school friend about some of the stories from my university days (prompted by her coming across a box containing some of the old letters I’d written to her). I was quite a prolific letter writer during my first degree at university. Back then, most of my friends didn’t have email and phoning wasn’t always so easy as it involved having to queue to use the hall payphone (and enduring the impatient sighs of those waiting whilst making the call!) Nowadays, I email or use Facebook to keep in touch, but it’s not the same.
