We understood that the two finalists from Wales would be marked on firstly an English-language postmark and then a Welsh-language postmark which would be applied at all capable mailing centres on mail sent to addresses in Wales. Imagine my surprise, therefore to be given examples addressed to Norwich!

On the lower one the down-stroke of the R in NR7 has failed to write, so interpreting this as NP7 (Newport Mon) seems likely. But the other two are clearer. The bar-codes are different on all three.
Talking about errors - I submitted a cover to Tallents House for the Glasgow post mark (4656) for St Andrews Day (30 November 2013) and they returned it with the Edinburgh post mark (FD1322TH) for 5 November 2013. Will the Royal Mail put this right, or am I stuck with their error?
