Mr Rainbow, 60, said: "We opened the letter, had a look at it and thought, 'Blimey, this is a bit strange'.The envelope has a Royal Mail first-class postage stamp and was franked in Bridgwater in 1995."It is in perfect condition, it's not like it's been lying around, it just looks old," Mr Rainbow said.
