Opening the post

So, I'm wondering. Most of the mail which arrives at the house for old occupants, I either re-direct or return to sender. I'm getting one or two letters a week though, from business sources (they're franked, not stamped) with no return address. These days, the Royal Mail will just throw these away if I stick them back in the system. So am I allowed to open the letters with the purpose of getting the sender's address to return the mail?

New boots

I had an Imelda Marcos moment in Faith the other day. I went in to buy sensible black shoes in the sale and I did, but when I was paying, I also spotted a pair of gorgeous boots on the wall. Well, I thought, I'll just try them on - they won't fit over my calf anyway. But they did, so I had to buy them. It's so rare that I fall in love with shoes which actually fit me.

Anyway. I find that I want to wear them all the time because they're so comfortable, but I don't want to waste them when you can hardly see them peeping out of jeans. So, a poll. Run my life for me LJ.

I wish they came in more colours - then it would be easier to justify to myself.
