Global reach, intentional pace
Your personal ad lives in our next issue, distributed across the UK’s most intriguing independent cafés, bookstores, and hidden corners and to subscribers worldwide. A digital edition of the newspaper is included, so you can read your issue anytime, anywhere.
Your Responses
We handle all letters that we receive from our London office. Each letter is handwritten, sealed, and forwarded to you, maintaining complete anonymity with unique reply codes. Your ad includes four forwards — wherever possible, we try to bundle letters received to make the most of your forwards.
Handling international replies
Please note: letters may take longer to arrive due to cross-border delivery. This is not for those seeking instant romance or fast connections — our system rewards patience, curiosity, and the joy of the slow, handwritten exchange.
Keep it sharp
40 words max. Enough to intrigue, never to overshare.
Need a hand?
We’ll help you craft the words that stand out—just let us know when you place your order.
Your membership never expires
A small admin fee applies once your forwards have been used (£5 per forward + postage).
