Hi Chris! There is some post in your letterbox.
Thanks, Laura. I'll go and get it later. By the way, do you know how much the postage is for
a postcard to France?
I'm not sure. All the mail-services are getting more and more expensive. I never remember
how much they are.
Well. I have to go to the post-office anyway, so I'll ask a counter clerk there.
Actually, I should go to the post-office too. I need to send a telegram and a few letters.
We can go together then.
All right, let's go! I must remember to buy some envelopes as well.
Look, here is a pillar-box. You can put your letters there. It says that the next collection is
at half past ten, that's just in five minutes.
OK. Let me check if I wrote the name of the addressee on each letter. Oh, this one needs
a stamp and I also forgot to write who the sender is.
