Yours, Martin.

Sending postcards is so passé,
old hat, vieux-jeu...

So I was thrilled to get a card today
out of the blue, so to say,

with pictures of Scottish Lochs on one side,
and on the other this plaintive message
accompanying an unfranked stamp:

I’ve mainly spent the past few weeks
looking joylessly at my knees
as I hiked
[presumably on a bike,
so not a tramp]]
through the Highlands
which
[rugged surfeit]
was interrupted by the occasional
Trail Friend and Stunning View.
It could almost have been worth it!
