We have postman called Mr X-Ray because he can detect if there's money inside the enevlope.

If you did that, there's no luck to claim it as there's rule in our country about putting money inside envelope.

My Mom-in- Law did send me money by post when i was in Pinas. She said she made a surprise to me. She have already sent it by post with £60 inside.
I said Mom, I am sure I will not receive it. So I told my husband to send me thru bank not by post next time as I received nothing.
