is it to get letters from you..  very rewarding  I have to say.........  and those who write usually send me something  really special and I think go out of their way to send me something nice.. like this envelope. well cover really.... .. thank you..    I was thrilled to get this in my PO Box.

It is Christmas soon and I know you are wondering what to get me for Christmas    . you arn't.. oh well.. if I have changed your mind.. then just send me a lovely envelope for my cover collection.. and if it has a plane (as in aircraft)  theme to it all the better.

I may be sending my Christmas Cards again this year..   what a collectors piece they are .. not seen one before..   well that means I may not have your mailing address..

Ok I am in a frivolous mood tonight... just picked up some excellent GB material from my PO Box..   as well as the above envelope..  I must go and organise some stamps... I am writing a piece on the GB  Royal Silver Wedding issue of 1948.. if you have any interesting stories or details about the issue please write to me..  

oops got to go,.., we have lightning come in.

Bye.. enjoy your stamps..  Michael
