He continued: “They had a first name, the village where I grew up and half the postcode.. the rest is more like my life story!”
The envelope described Lynn in the nicest way possible. “Feargal, Lives across the road from the Spar, his ma and da used to own it, his mother was Mary and Da Joseph.”
Continuing to explain the journey of Feargal’s life, the ‘address’ went on: “Moved to Waterfoot after he got married, plays guitar and used to run discos in the parochial hall and the hotel in the 80s.”
The letter writing also added: “Friends with the fella runs the butchers in Waterfoot too.”
Speaking to Belfast Live, the musician said he was “more than amazed at the reaction” to his post which has over 2K likes on Twitter so far.
Feargal said: “I decided last year to write handwritten letters after a singer/songwriter friend Hannah Scott wrote a song called The Letter about keeping the art of letter writing alive. I wrote to a friend over Christmas whom I’d known all my life from the summer holidays and I didn’t put my address in the letter – this was her response.
“It was like seeing my life on an envelope.”

It was amazing how the postman made sure the right guy received the letter even though there wasn’t an address.
