Merry Christmas Mr. Kelly from Buckingham Palace

　　Ever wonder what Britain's royal family write on their Christmas cards? Australian Tim Kelly knows, as he receives one from the Queen every year.

　　Each Christmas time, Kelly's Sydney mailbox is packed with greeting cards from celebrities and household names including Queen Elizabeth, pop star Kylie Minogue, former South African President Nelson Mandela and U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong.

　　"The royal family are sensational, they are always very prompt in their Christmas greetings," the 39-year-old Kelly said.

　　"And the card that comes from No. 10 Downing Street, is a nice card," he said, referring to the residence of the British prime minister. "Tony Blair was always very prompt in his reply. I haven't received one from Gordon Brown yet," he told reporters.

　　Kelly's Christmas card tradition started when he wrote to former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher as a 12 year old, and she responded. That set him on a path to sending -- and receiving -- greetings from all over the world.

　　Over the years he has received cards from former President Ronald Reagan and his wife Nancy, Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman, singer Elton John, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and Britain's Prince William.

　　"The Queen and Prince Philip would like to thank you Mr. Kelly for your Christmas wishes and trust that you have a lovely Christmas," reads the message in Kelly's Christmas card each year from Buckingham Palace.

　　Each year Kelly tries to find new people to write to, but admits with tighter privacy laws it's getting tougher to track celebrities down.

　　"I tried to send a card to Fidel Castro a few years ago, but the Cuban Embassy thought I was mad, and I never got a response from him either," he said, referring to the Cuban leader.

　　Kelly also treasures cards from those who have passed on, and, despite their potential value, he says he has no plans to sell them.

　　"A couple of years I moved house and forgot to write to the Queen and I still got a card. I must be on their database," he said with a laugh.

　　想過(guò)英國(guó)王室會(huì)在圣誕賀卡上寫(xiě)些什么祝福語(yǔ)嗎？家住澳大利亞悉尼的蒂姆?凱利可以告訴你，因?yàn)樗磕甓紩?huì)收到女王的圣誕賀卡。

　　每年圣誕節(jié)，凱利家的郵箱總是塞滿(mǎn)了社會(huì)各界名流寄來(lái)的圣誕賀卡，其中包括英國(guó)女王伊麗莎白，流行明星凱莉?米洛、南非前總統(tǒng)尼爾森?曼德拉和美國(guó)宇航員尼爾?阿姆斯特朗等等。

　　39歲的凱利說(shuō)：“英國(guó)王室每年都會(huì)非常及時(shí)地送上圣誕祝福，這令我很感動(dòng)。”

　　他在接受記者采訪(fǎng)時(shí)說(shuō)：“（英國(guó)）唐寧街10號(hào)首相府寄來(lái)的賀卡也非常漂亮。布萊爾的回復(fù)總是很快，但目前我還沒(méi)有收到過(guò)布朗首相的賀卡。”

　　凱利給名人寄圣誕賀卡的傳統(tǒng)從他12歲時(shí)就開(kāi)始了，當(dāng)時(shí)他給英國(guó)時(shí)任首相撒切爾夫人寄了張圣誕賀卡，并收到了她的回復(fù)。從那以后，凱利每年都會(huì)向世界各地的名人寄送圣誕祝福，同時(shí)也會(huì)收到來(lái)自世界各地的祝福。

　　到目前為止，凱利收到過(guò)美國(guó)前總統(tǒng)羅納德?里根及其夫人南希、好萊塢著名影星妮可?基德曼、搖滾歌手埃爾頓?約翰、美國(guó)前國(guó)務(wù)卿基辛格和英國(guó)威廉王子寄來(lái)的圣誕賀卡。

　　白金漢宮（英國(guó)王室）寄給凱利的圣誕賀卡上的祝福語(yǔ)是：“親愛(ài)的凱利先生，女王和菲利普親王感謝你的圣誕祝福，并祝你度過(guò)一個(gè)美好的圣誕。”

　　每年凱利都試圖給一些新人寄賀卡，但由于現(xiàn)在的隱私保護(hù)法越來(lái)越嚴(yán)格，所以想要得到名人的地址越來(lái)越困難。

　　他說(shuō)：“幾年前，我打算給古巴領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人菲德?tīng)?卡斯特羅寄圣誕賀卡，但古巴大使館竟然認(rèn)為我瘋了，我也從沒(méi)收到過(guò)他本人的回復(fù)。”

　　凱利還十分珍視已逝名人曾給他寄的圣誕賀卡，盡管能值不少錢(qián)，但凱利說(shuō)他不會(huì)賣(mài)。

　　他笑著說(shuō)：“幾年前，我搬家了，忘了給女王寄賀卡，但我仍然收到了女王的賀卡。想必我被列入了他們的寄卡名單。”
