A woman who stuck a stamp to a letter box after forgetting to attach it to an envelope hailed An Post for delivering the card.
Sarah Hogan, from Dublin, posted a card to congratulate her friend on the birth of her daughter last month, but forgot to attach the stamp to the envelope.
She retrieved a stamp and left it on the post box with a note begging the post collector to attach it to the card.
Speaking on TodayFM, she said: “I popped it in the box and realised, ‘Oh my God, I forgot the stamp’.
“I got my stamp and wrote a grovelling letter to my nice post collector saying, ‘Please rummage around in here and attach the stamp to the card’. I went back and stuck it on the oustide of the postbox. I went back the next day and the note was gone.
“The happy ending was that two days later, the card and stamp ended up in my friend’s door. There are good post men and women in Dublin.”
