Why would they? The cards have already failed ages ago and any item can only ever fail once

I get this only failing once technicality guff but I don't think the senders and recipients will find that acceptable at all, thinking oh well that's ok then, you did your best, it's a s**t service

I had a Christmas card postmarked mid December appear in my sequenced the other week. It caught my eye moreso because this is not the first year that's happened.
Any Questions?
Yeah, how do I get out of this chickenshit outfit?
