Congrats, though.

What did you do about postage? I live in the USA, but I bought UK stamps, and placed them on the return envelope, so all he had to do was send it off. That may have sped things up. Good luck!

Anyone else have any thoughts on the dedication?
Hm hadn't thought about the postage issue. I didn't have UK stamps, so I sent along 3 international reply coupons.

The dedication appears to be genuine (I'm somewhat of a self-confessed expert when it comes to David's handwriting haha). Congratulations.

Capmonte, I used to use IRCs as well. But they're getting hard to find, they're obscure enough that post office workers get confused by them, and the other person has to carry them around and actually go to a post office to redeem them for UK stamps. I finally realized that it's FAR easier to go to royalmail.com, where I bought a book of 25 1st Class UK stamps for just $15 with shipping. I just place two of them on a large envelope, and all the other people have to do is sign the photos and seal the envelope. I recommend going that route. It's cheaper for you, and easier for them!
Yeah I may have to switch to doing that. I've been ordering IRCs online from the post office website, but it would be just as easy to order UK postage.
