It would be a bit alarming if she was still sending letters

84

Would be pretty punk rock if she had preemptively written out like a hundred of these to send out after her passing

What do you mean. Queen Charles will now be sending letters.

I like your optimism thinking that he'd wait till you're 13

You misunderstand, the text would say "13? Ha, you're now too old, got any younger siblings?"

In NZ you could get a Queen letter too (now it's from the king). I wonder if it's available across the Commonwealth.

Canada used to have the same thing, we might still.

My first job was working with dementia patients and we had a couple century birthdays. It was pretty neat.

When my nan turned 100 in Australia she got a horny post card from Temu Voldemort Peter Dutton

Haha in NZ you get a message from all sorts, king, prime minister, minister for seniors, local MP, amd for many places, the mayor of where you live.

The list is here on the page about applying under "Who the messages are from". You do have to apply (normally a family member will apply on their behalf), the king doesn't magically know where you live 100 years after you were born.

This offer is no longer available. Does King Charles follow his mothers tradition here?

Yes! Grandfather-in-law just got one. Not just in UK — this is Commonwealth-wide.
