A letter addressed: "Your man Henderson, that boy with the glasses who
is doing a PhD up here at Queen's in Belfast. Buncrana, County Donegall,
Ireland," successfully reached its intended recipient last week -
student Barry Henderson.
A friend of Barry's sent the letter in an attempt to demonstrate how small Buncrana is.
The letter traveled more than 80 miles from Belfast, before being delivered to the office of Mr Henderson's wife, Roisin in the town.
Inside was a note saying: "If this has arrived, you live in a village."
Buncrana in County Donegal has a population of about 7,000.
Roisin Henderson said she thought the local postmen were "wonderful".
"They go above and beyond," she said. "I actually cornered the postman that came into the office this morning, but he claimed it wasn't him. I'm not sure if he was being shy or it really wasn't, but I'm going to find the postman."
