‘Pristine’ 200-year-old Faroese sweater found at UK’s National Archives - https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/mar/01/pristine-200-year-old-faroese-sweater-found-at-uk-national-archives "Item and letter never reached their destination in Denmark because Royal Navy seized cargo ship in 1807" amazing what you find in these places

@glynmoody But, won’t Royal Mail finally try to deliver those letters and parcels, or failing that return them to sender?

@denspier maybe; but at the time the person receiving the letter had to pay the postage, and the interest on that might be large...

@glynmoody All the more reason for Royal Mail to give it a try! 😉
