    One year I did actually open one of the cards, but as predicted there was no return address, or even surname, so no chance of getting back to them.

    So as much as putting “No longer at this address” as has been suggested would probably stop me getting the cards, the senders would never know because the cards can’t be traced back.

    This way, those wishing the Jarvis’ season’s greetings year after year can continue to happily wish them well, oblivious to the fact that they lost touch over a decade ago.

    The Jarvis family probably have a different opinion though, and question why they never get Christmas cards from these people despite sending their own every year. Should have given them a forwarding address then shouldn’t you? Clearly you’re not that disappointed to lose touch if you couldn’t be arsed to update them, you boring-surnamed fucks. Merry Christmas.

      Ah, I didn’t realize return addresses weren’t mandatory in other parts of the world. I figured you just put yours elsewhere from ours on your letters when I saw the space where we usually have ours was blank. That certainly makes it difficult to resolve missent mail. I admire your ability to put a positive spin on the scenario, haha! I’m sure the senders are happier just continuing to believe their letters are being accepted and enjoyed.

      Try posting on public social media pages for your local country for example those notice board type pages on facebook

      It’s a longshot but it might work
