Antique heirloom mailing list

[bunn]

In the post today we got a letter addressed to one of the previous owners of our house, from the Countryside Alliance.

We bought this house 7 years ago, and the addressee had moved out 8 years prior to that.

So, the mailinglist that his address was on must have been a *minimum* of 15 years old!

I know this is the country, people don't move about quite so much. But15 years? Clean your list, Countryside Alliance!

Given that the Countryside Alliance didn't exist fifteen years ago, one of their feeder organisations must have very cobwebbed records.

That hadn't occurred to me - that IS odd!
