my REAL wall - Date obvious - my REAL calendar, originally uploaded by andytgeezer.

Me and Elena went by the Tate last night and picked up a postcard calendar I've had my eye on for a while. When I got home it turned out that one of my readers had sent me a postcard with a Salvador Dali picture on it, which was one of the postcards in the pack. What are the chances of that happening!

Thanks to Bernhard Zilling, Selfcallednowhere, Beenebag (thanks for all the messages this week by the way) and Helmyne for your contributions to this one.

my REAL wall - October 28, 2009 - Let's start some mischief, originally uploaded by andytgeezer.

Elena, me and your postcards have just strolled in back in from our break in Romania to a nice heap of more than 20 postcards and letters from you!

All the mail on my REAL wall today is new and what a great set this was too! Notable amongst the pile were the posts from Postmuse, who sent so many very cool envelopes and postcards that she has her own corner.

Awesome mail also came in from Dumpsterdiversanonymous, mhmedia and Jennlui

The status is a mailart call for some assistance with a little mischief. If you're interested in getting your mailart on my REAL wall and perhaps in a local newspaper in London, have a little read of my mailart call on my blog

Don't forget to click on the image to see the fully annotated flickr picture (hover over the image to see who sent what!)

Oh come on - it was 1 in the morning and I had another 6 hours in an empty airport - what else could I have done!

Me, Elena and your postcards spent a few days in Iasi, the Moldavian regional capital in Romania, where Elena went to university.

Most Romanians associate Iasi with the poet Eminescu and the home of Carpati, the country's cheapest and roughest cigarette brand back in the days of communist rule.

Most of you will probably remember it as the temporary home of your postcards today.

As you all know, there are 2 ways to be on my REAL wall. The most obvious one is to send me a REAL post, and the other is to photograph my REAL post on your REAL wall.

The latest REAL wall is one of yours and comes from Jelmer Lentrickx, a postcrossing member from the Netherlands.

Mine is the green one at the bottom left hand corner, which is from the BBC Poetry season.

In Jelmer's own words

the man that is a stranger
laughs and will forever laugh
a girl that pushes her own
pram along is older now
and weeps for her mother died
of heart attack and soon she
will have one herself and the
poet who knows only knows
and i just made a huge mistake
but think it's all way better that way
