    I am supposed to be tidying up today, but as usual, I have got distracted! I found a whole load of old envelopes, including some Victorian ones. They belonged to my Uncle Don, who worked in a solicitors in Carlisle (England) and collected stamps etc. This one is my favourite with a very amusing hand drawn picture on the front. It is dated 1883. One of the envelopes is as early as 1853,
