On our way to the neighborhood tube stop, Scott stopped at a streetside mailbox to deposit two postcards. Just as he started to drop them in, Olivia, reading the side of the mailbox, shouted out in alarm: "Stop, Dad! That's ROYAL mail!" When we got done laughing, we explained that the royal part of the mail refers not to the recipient but to the ultimate beneficiary of the revenue.
