Illustrator Harriet Russell started a project of sending envelopes with puzzle to solve for the address though the Royal Mail. Reminiscent of the Postal Experiments by the Annals of Improbably Research, of the 130 envelopes mailed, all but 10 were delivered. The Independent and Telegraph both run stories on the letters and subsequent book.
