OMG, the postman has just knocked on my door with an envelope which says 'do not bend' addressed to me in my handwriting . I couldn't understand what it was as I haven't sent a self stamped 'do not bend' envelope to anyone. Anyway to cut a long story short, just after I saw Lee for the first time in Jo, I was so taken with him as a performer that I printed off two sets of pictures and sent them to him with a really heartfelt letter about my experiences with Mark and how over the months of watching him on ADWD and seeing him on Joe a cloud had been lifted and I was starting to feel more human again.

Well today (some 18mths later) I got the photos back, with a postit note appologising for the delay in sending these, they were apparently found with old mail, both signed - with Love, Lee Mead but on the back of one is a beautiful message

To Anne, Thank you for the lovely letter. I can only imagine what you have been going through. Keep Stong, all the best, Lee

Is it possible to be more in love with the man that I already am.

Oh Anne! That's so lovely!!!

What an unexpected surprise! I'm made up for you!

What a sweetheart he is. What a thrill, Anne.

What a wonderful surprise, you must be overjoyed. I wonder what else was in the lost postbag?

Anne that is just such a lovely story - you must be thrilled.
Lee is a really special person, and his staff
have done a great job catching up with his mail.
How can anyone not love him...
Thanks for sharing and
Happy Easter to you.

Oh that is so sweet of him. Reading that has actually brought tears to my eyes which is quite unusual for me. He is just so lovely. I know I am more in love with him now than before.

What a wonderful story, Anne - Lee is just one lovely, amazing person!

He's a beautiful man inside and out and so, so talented but above all, kind, gentle, sincere and polite to his fans to a fault.
