This really should be written up for a magazine... and being a writer, you have no excuses!
With regards to the letters heading overseas, I wonder whether people are more likely to post them given that you presumably put more expensive stamps on them. A letter with a 2nd class stamp might not seem as needy as a letter going to America that cost you 50p?
We should do some stats...
England: 8 yes, 8 no = 50% got through Japan: 0 yes, 1 no = 0% got through Scotland: 1 yes, 0 no = 100% got through Ireland: 2 yes, 1 no = 66% got through USA: 1 yes, 3 no = 25% got through Australia: 3 yes, 0 no = 100% got through
So UK = 11 yes, 9 no = 55% got through Outside UK = 4 yes, 4 no = 50% got through
