Would it be rude?

[Music man's wife]

Every year since Chris's diagnosis our local MND branch have sent out a M&S Gift card at Christmas. Up to date this has been the only upside to his diagnosis .
Anyhow this year nothing.
I know there have been postal strikes but do you think I should enquire, daughter thinks I should let it go.

Music man's wife I don't think it would be the slightest bit rude to politely ask - you could use the postal strikes as an excuse, as in, should Chris be on the lookout for a card.

I wonder if, because of the strikes, they may send/have sent an e-gift card, maybe in spam? xx

Good point thanks Ellie, will have a look xx
