So I guess that's my long way of saying it depends on how it's done.<br /><br />Frankly, I'm still mad at myself for sending a mere letter to his "people" even though I really had a good reason. note to self: get over feeling dumb since you would probably do it again given the same circumstances. :DbZirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05086707471450034283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173914596327749967.post-39146696751175511762009-12-14T13:44:50.762-06:002009-12-14T13:44:50.762-06:00A question - writing a letter is one thing but wha...A question - writing a letter is one thing but what about sending presents like clothes, music etc.?

Erm. Haven't done that sort of thing since. I mean, what do you actually write? "Thank you" is too brief, but if you go into detail, soon it'll be rambling loony, and you don't really want that!Traxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13249884092846934427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173914596327749967.post-2350154576861459822009-12-10T18:15:58.451-06:002009-12-10T18:15:58.451-06:00It's not my style either.

However, one of my daughters (supposedly as a gag) did invite Kevin Spacey to her high school graduation party. She must have a recessive gene. :DbZirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05086707471450034283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173914596327749967.post-82576389671806041262009-12-10T17:23:17.038-06:002009-12-10T17:23:17.038-06:00No, I've never written a letter to anyone famo...No, I've never written a letter to anyone famous...Santa is the only exception:) Just isn't my style--it would make me feel about 13yrs old again. Besides, his office staff probably has more fan mail than they can easily handle as it is. Oohing and ahhing about RA on the internet seems to more than fulfill any need in that regard.

I even made it clear that we didn't want to bother Mr. Armitage but merely wanted to watch the show being filmed. That is the only time I have ever written to anyone even remotely connected to a celebrity much less writing to a celebrity. I will probably never do it again. Frankly, I felt like an idiot writing that letter, but I had a good reason. Doesn't everyone? :D<br /><br />It turns out that we were going to be in London the same day Spooks was wrapping for the year, so there was no way.bZirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05086707471450034283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173914596327749967.post-15453154720582992022009-12-09T20:26:28.461-06:002009-12-09T20:26:28.461-06:00Cute letters Nat...You always make me laugh out lo...Cute letters Nat...You always make me laugh out loud in front of my computer so everyone in the next room thinks I am crazy.<br /><br />I voted no and don't plan to.
