"But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."- St. Peter. "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come." - Jesus.

Lost mail


Heater removed from our living room (gave me an extra six inches in height)



Our letter box #51.



The secret slot in the back of our letter box.


Where o where did all our mail go?
A postcard from Italy.
A letter from my aunty with photos of my cousin's wedding.
Four parcel notification notices that we thought never came. (Which we decided to ask the post office about and still got our parcels).

Inside a secret compartment behind the letterbox?!! It was made with an extra slot at the back. For what reason only Rasputin knows.
We have received other mail.

I would never have discovered this extra mail, if our living room heater was not replaced. The old one is still sitting inside the stairwell. I stood on it for fun, the extra six inches in my height let me discover the secret compartment.

Another crazy adventure in culture shock. Would you like to join in the fun? :)
