Hi everybody,

Got home after a tiring day out of shopping and found my envelope with Gemma Arterton penciled on it looking like it had been through the wars.

I was like "OMG what on earth has happened here!"

So I opened it up and saw that Gemma had kindly signed my picture, St.Trinian's DVD cover and filled in my questionnaire.

Take a look:

I was absolutely delighted... until I saw this:

A rip!!!!

Don't Royal Mail get on your nerves sometimes!

Anyway, I am really pleased with this success.

Great success from Gemma - sorry about the rip, though. Royal Mail did a number on my Daniel Craig success from A Steady Rain; at some point it was on the floor of the warehouse (footprints on the envelope to prove it).

Very well done {up}

Thanks! ;-) It's really annoying when Roayl Mail do that though. Mine also has marks on it, like it's been trodden on. (BTW: I think I would scream if I realised my Daniel Craig one had been damaged, haha)

{down} I'd put a card-backed envelope with everything if I could, but I can't afford it. Stamps are expensive enough.

I like the way you worded your questionnaire, by the way.

Card backed envelopes are expensive! {down} The price of stamps have gone up as well. I bought some second class stamps the other day and they have gone up from 30p to 32p. Ridiculous!

Thanks, glad you liked the questionnaire!
