Um, this is Britain. We're civilised here!

The postman takes the post to the front door and puts the mail through a clever device called a letter box.

Hey Presto! There is your mail sitting there in your hallway waiting to be binned/opened/whatever!

International Fanny Pack Day -- For the concert I used a Boobie pack - sort of. Didn't want to carry a purse so put money/ID/keys in my pockets and my cell phone in my left bra strap and the camera in my right bra strap!
Earmuffs Day

Have a nice day!
