u/on1oman1ac, thank you for the cute cat postcard (with the awesome COVID stamp) congratulating me for hitting the 500 flair. Your work sounds so interesting! I'd love to land somewhere similar in future. And, as always, your handwriting is beautiful and it's lovely to practice Chinese! Thank you :)

u/MonetMonkey (x2), thank you for the r/RAoC_meta pride challenge postcard and the Norfolk postcard, both with adorable cat stamps! I was very amused with your colourful writing on the pride card and it was interesting to read about Norfolk. Thank you :)

u/BlueDecemberArt (x2), thank you for the postal notecards (I've forgotten the real name for them at this moment) and for telling me all your postal secrets! I am very chuffed to add a new type of philatelic item to my collection and your messages made me laugh and brightened my days.

u/NeonGreenPurple (x5), thank you for the happy mail! I love the She-Ra designs and it was extra fun to read about what you love about those designs, too! And my nephew was so thrilled with the flag cards, too! Thank you!

u/ch037866, thank you so much for the delightful sunny crochet card! This one arrived with particularly apt timing as I had just taught myself crochet in an effort to keep my hands busy while I was avoiding the internet. Crochet cards is not something I'd considered but your design is so cute; I might need to try some! I am still waiting for sunshine to arrive but at least things are very slowly warming up here. I hope things are well with you, too!

u/MoominMog (x2), thank you for the super Support System card to congratulate me on reaching 500 flair, as well as the lovely Scottish PHQ! Your mail is always so delightful and never fails to make me smile. Thank you!

u/amyt13, thank you for the Portugal postcard! It was very fun to read about your adventures and now I really want to go, too! Thank you :)

u/disabledimmigrant, thank you so much for the PHQ with the Shetland puffins pictorial postmark! I am so glad we could connect for this exchange and your card turned out perfectly and made my day! It arrived in a clear plastic Royal Mail sleeve, which I've never seen before. I am definitely keen to exchange more pictorial postmarks in future if you're interested. Thanks again :)

u/o0oiwio0o, thank you so much for the awesome plane maxicard! I am thrilled to add it to my collection! It was really fun to read about your adventures, too! I will send some more maxis your way, too. Thanks again :)

u/ninajyang, thank you for the beautiful Cannonball Tree postcard in celebration of your 4k flair -- and congrats again! I am very guilty of watching the same TV shows over and over. I am presently re-watching EVIL for about the 14th time, but it's so good and I am still finding new details! Thanks again :)

u/Bree867 (x2), thank you for the r/RAoC_meta Travel/Adventure and Code/Riddle challenge cards! They're both fantastic designs but I am especially enamoured with the map card! It was nice to read about your travel dreams, too! I used to travel a lot and am itching to get back to it; maybe next year. We'll have to see what happens. Thanks again!

u/OneiricOstrich (x2), thank you for the lovely RaspberryPaper Pride and Indiana postcards! It was so interesting to read about the history of Pride! And it meant a lot to receive your encouraging message during the extra pointy bit of my thesis. Thanks again!

u/funtonite (x2), thank you for spoiling me with two beautiful postcards with pictorial postmarks! I know I am like a broken record but I always so enjoy reading your musings about temples and the postmark is extra delightful! And the robot Letter-Writing Day postmark is also so very cool! Thank you so much for thinking of me! I plan to send away for more Aus pictorials soon so I will keep you on my recipient list, too :)

u/welshfancy, thank you for the Pooh Christmas in July card! Your mail is always such a joy and I am glad we have been able to connect. Thanks for thinking of me!

u/Lydi_ahaha (x3), thank you for the u/RAoC_meta Pride mail as well as the Spiderman card! Gosh, you make me feel so spoiled! I loved your decorations and the inspiring Pride quote (and especially the matching Pride stamp!!!), and the Spiderman card was such a huge delight! AusPost have just released Spiderman stamps, too, so I am inspired to make some Spiderman maxis of my own and will definitely send one your way! Thank you for thinking of me and continuing to send delightful mail my way; it really brightened my days through this tough period.

u/isar-love (x2), thank you for the u/RAoC_meta Book and Encouragement challenge postcards! It was so interesting to read about the lack of German for book-smart and about your reading, and I really love the Wunder card design, which sounds like it's been on quite the adventure! The green R&K Documentus ink is really lovely, too; it seems to have a lot of depth with the shading. Thanks again!

u/ChasingAfterShadows (x2), thank you for the awesome Hello Kitty post office card! Thanks also for entertaining my writing prompt; your musings made me smile. I also think birds would make a good choice for an animal-run postal service! Thanks again :)

u/DPClamavi (x6), firstly, thank you for the u/RAoC_meta Sun/Moon challenge card; your design is so beautiful and I was delighted to also receive the beautiful cat card from a local artist! They're both stunning, as is your envelope! Thank you again for the mail with my La Poste order! I apologise that it needed more postage than I had sent but I was so, so thrilled with the stamps you chose to use! The Japanese garden minisheet is my new pride and joy! I suspect you have solved your pen problems by now (I really did love reading about them, though haha) but if not let me know and I will definitely help you troubleshoot!

And thank you, also, for the joint postcard from u/ignaposts! It was so much fun to read about your adventures together and from both perspectives! It sounds like a truly incredible trip!
