Hey,

new here and to auto collecting too. I sent my request off to Mr. Tennant last week... to his agency. Hey ho. But he seems brilliantly generous and I don't mind waiting at all-- he doesn't have to sign. I'm a big Who fan so it'll be brilliant when it arrives.

BTW... I think he might have meant: 'Please do not bend'? Me? Why not? :) :)

cheers,
sf

Of Course of course lol {love}

[quote="dragonflyer260"]Ok thanks for that, i havent sent anything by express post but i might try it this time. And i love David and so do alot of my friends so we will show him around if he ever came here! {love}[/quote]

Haha you and a hundred other Aussie Tennantites! :)

[quote="dragonflyer260"]Ok i have been meaning to send to David for a while now and i have noticed he is good at signing VV i was just wondering, since it will take ages from here, should i send to the VV address? or just his agency because im unsure how long it would take for my request to get there[/quote]

According to http://www1.auspost.com.au/international/, the fastest service from Australia to UK is 3-4 work days. That's Express Courier International. Express Post International is 4 work days, Air Mail is 4-5 work days, Registered Post International is also 4-5 work days (costs less than Air Mail because there's no insurance). If you sent now (and included 2-3 IRCs of course for the return journey) it should have plenty of time to get here before the play ends in November. Even if it doesn't make it, which it should, I'm sure your request will be forwarded on by the theatre should it arrive late (either to his agent or to the next VV theatre).

David would probably love to hear from someone in Australia too, he's always wanted to go there!

I totally agree with you autoland, I am a masive fan of this bloke but would hate for him to see my letters over and over again and think "for god sake" :lol:

Once I recieve mne back im going to wait, then Im going to send a Dr who birthday card for him to sign for my son.

Then Ill be complete :mrgreen:

[quote="osiris"][quote="mymymy"]He is still replying very quickly. I am sure he must get lots of mail but I just think he is great at replying to his fans especially while he is doing theatre I think he must have a bit more free time.

While yes, he's not filming, he's doing 6 shows a week (some weeks more, what with matinees) and rehearsing during the day. It's not like this is time off for him :) We should all be careful not to send too many requests, lest we be too greedy.[/quote]

You made such a great point, we should by all means write to him, but not send hundreds of things to him, or Patrick to sign.

I would say as a rule of thumb, 2 as a max. Yes we could just send and send, but what about the others after us, it's good to give them the pleasure of receiving an authentic autograph.

Oh by the way, if you send to him and you live in the UK, he will answer you within 5 days, so if you work on this, that would mean, if you're sending from the US, your answer will be in 9-12 days. No bad at all really. :D :) 8) :lol: {thumb2} {up}

All the best to everyone who sends to David.

Be patient. Although he was initially answering only afetr 2 or 3 days he must be getting a lot more requests now since word has spread of him signed well via venue. Im sure he will do his upmost to reply to them all. Good luck

I wish I used first class stamps,

I only had 2nd class large and had A4 envelopes lol I put a note with my letter "sorry for the oversized evelope Hubbies c rap at shopping" :lol: I shouldnt of used C rap though, :roll: :neutral:
