I like receiving e-mails, but I also like receiving letters. Xmas and birthdays wouldn't be the same without cards. What do others think?

Agree - I like to receive both too, and it is nice to get a card in the post on your b'day - shows people have cared enough to remember! I do like writing letters aswell as I think its nice to send people letters - its a surprise to receive a letter in the post and wonder who its from! Though in the future when the world becomes more high-tech based, who knows.....! Natalie

its nice to receive letters,but I must admit whenever I receive an animated card I love them. Especially the Christmas ones where you click on an object to see the tree light up etc.

Terri Me too! I love those Christmas animated emails! Because I log on to the PC every day, I love sending and receiving emails especially as our friends seem to be spread far and wide. But I must admit to being a bit old-fashioned and also like sending and receiving letters. And I hope sending cards never dies out!
