Why do British people always write "xxx" after their names?

X or X means kiss. So XXX or xxx would mean kisses. O or o means hugs so xoxoxo means hugs and kisses.

I don't know when this trend started but it was certainly more than 80 years ago and was or is still commonplace in Canada, at least among the elderly.

British people do NOT ALWAYS end their missives with xxx.

Sometime ago, the Iranian Minister said that a US Navy aircraft carrier would be an easy target for 300 speed boats armed with Katyusha rocket launchers. Is this true?
