They May Not Be Knocking On Your Door

But the Seventh Day Adventists have other ways.
This morning a handwritten envelope popped through my letterbox...addressed to "the householder@......"
"I live in the area, but I've not gotten the chance to speak to you personally..."
* not to worry, I'll not speak in person to you, so you're not missing anything.
It waffled on for two full pages.

you opened a letter 'addressed to the householder'?

JWs have adopted the same tactic as they can't go door-knocking at the moment.

[pastafreak]

Ael...I admit to being curious as it was handwritten and local.

I guess even devastating situations like the Covid pandemic have their pluses ... !

[aelmpvw]

fair enough, on reflection i might have done the same :-)

Are they American like the Mormons? Jusk asking cos the word 'gotten' is never used in British English.

[pastafreak]

Aunt Polly...that was actually me, slipping back into American English! Ooops.
She actually wrote "not been able to speak..."

It looks like you're one of the last to be 'saved', Pasta ;-)
