With the 2nd reply, again I puzzles over who this could be from. The reply obviously came from Britain. But it lacked some of the usual marking of an envelope from the Royals: No EIIR, no Buckingham Palace postmark, and no paid postage stamp. There is no monogram or coat of arms on the back. And for the first time ever the address is hand-written.
I didn't really know what to make of the envelope. Everything crossed my mind, including one of you tracking down my address and writing to tell my you loved Gert's Royals.
The reply is from Princess Tessy of Luxembourg. I had written to her in October for her Birthday. I had sent my letter to the Palace in Luxembourg, who forward it on to Princess Tessy, who lives in London with her children. (And no we don't have Princess Tessy or Prince Louis London Address, letter for them should be sent to Luxembourg.)
The reply is the family's Christmas card, signed by Princess Tessy. It has a little addition, thanking me for my Birthday Wishes.
It does seem a little bizarre to see a Christmas card with both Louis and Tessy's names, as they announced their divorce a week ago. But I wish them much happiness, and hope they can have a good, friendly relationship like Prince Andrew and Duchess Sarah.
The envelope postmark doesn't have a date, but based on the usual time it takes for a letter to arrive here from the UK, this reply was sent right around the day the Palace announced the couple was divorcing. I'm glad Princess Tessy had some uplifting well-wishes to read during that difficult time.
