What happened to the letters the government were writing to every household?

About 10 days ago I thought it was announced that the government was writing to every household in the country to reiterate the advice regarding CV

I thought it seemed a waste of time and money as you’d have to be living in a bunker to have not heard to before but that’s beside the point

Did anyone actually receive this letter?

We received ours today

Topseyt · 08/04/2020 18:37

Ours arrived today.

It reiterates everything we already have from watching the news. Will keep it for a few days and then probably put it in the recycling.

Lordfrontpaw · 08/04/2020 20:06

Yesterday here

Devlesko · 08/04/2020 20:06

Wasn't sure whether to burn it or just chuck it, so with my gloves on it was binned. Grin Even intercepted postie so it didn't come through the house. Right round the back to the bins.
Whatever it said you can't believe a word the lying bastards say.

Gotthetshirt23 · 08/04/2020 20:07

We have had 2 !

Notnownotneverever · 08/04/2020 20:08

Yes. This morning. Yes it seemed a waste. It went straight in the bin as the advice is clear and well published and we are following it.

Fleamaker123 · 08/04/2020 20:17

We got ours today... It was a repeat of one of Boris' speeches? And a leaflet about hand washing etc.

Insideout99 · 08/04/2020 20:19

Got mine today

meemaw12 · 08/04/2020 20:20

Got it today. Didn't read it went straight in the recycling.

DBML · 08/04/2020 20:21

We got ours on Monday and I’m framing it.
It marks a really significant event in our lives that I never want to forget.
Whenever I go to complain about where my tax goes, I’ll remember how lucky we are to have the NHS and all of those hardworking people.

vera99 · 08/04/2020 20:22

Boris got ill and forgot to post them.

Cary2012 · 08/04/2020 20:25

I got my letter yesterday, my parents the day before, and my daughter today.

ZarkingBell · 08/04/2020 20:26

I got mine on Saturday last week.

Ffsnosexallowed · 08/04/2020 20:28

Haven't had ours. What a total waste of money and effort.
