Well, that's pretty funny.....LOL
Don't know their first names.... or their last names.... watcha wanna search? The colour of their letter box? An identikit maybe?
ROFLMAO
I say just be honest and go with something like:
Here's wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas

*Oh - I do hope you laugh with me on this one!*

I'd go with Boots's suggestion... actually I wouldn't send one at all cos I don't do christmas cards unless it's to people that I don't bump into every day... just call me Scrooge :)

Lived here a few weeks, admitted to hospital on completion day & been bedridden ever since. No opportunity to talk to them, or even meet them. I think it will be rude to be over friendly on the first card. I know some of them are church goers......and elderly. I want to respect them.
All I ask is does anyone know a website which will give me the info.

hold on... hold on....
What are you doing writing Christmas cards anyway lol... it's only September. No doubt by the time chrimbo comes along you'll either know them and be on first name terms, or you'll have found out that you can't stand each other and not want to send them a card anyway hehehe.
You could always ask the postie!
