Hello, well there are 11 days until Christmas and apart from two very easy presents (a digital camera for each of my daughters) I have not not bought presents for my family.. or for me come to think of it. I may well buy my present to myself at the stamp auction tomorrow. There is a copy of GB SG 438 in unmounted mint condition with margin at the auction. Nice copy. I went to view yesterday and think it worth a bid at the starting price. It all just depends on who else is bidding I guess. You will just have to wait as well    

I would have written about this and more last night but my internet connection was down. Was I a very unhappy camper ...  but did the telephone company care.. I dont think so...  what happens to you,, do you get.. "sorry sir we cannot solve the problem or tell you what is wrong but will escalate and you will get a call within 48 hours"..  like is that customer service... I'll try telling that to my customers next time a server (computer) goes down... I'll get fired I expect...

Back to stamps. .      I found these Christmas stamps.

Must  try and read the rest of my emails ...  best wishes.. enjoy your stamps .. Michael
