Springy mail from Martha

Great stamped envelope from Martha. I like the color of the new 1.17 stamp, even though the price hike from Royal Mail is a bit steep (11.4%).

And a bonus banana article from Private Eye.

    The postmark is interesting, too: national stationery week!?! I've never heard of it before but it sounds good.
    As does M.A.M.'s poem :-)

      And I like her country: the Queendom of Retailia. An interesting country, as is Adanaland (Alan's country) and Quincy island (Ptrzia/TicTac's).
      Did you ever had a(n imaginary) country of your own? What is the name, or how would you name it in case your country still has to be discovered?

      I hadn't heard of this special week before, either. On the other hand, I don't need a special week to be thinking about buying stationery!

      I use Fauxhio as the place my faux stamps are issued.

      I agree, it is stationery week the whole year round :-)

      Fauxhio, a great name!
