So I go to our meeting yesterday with Good Intentions, and yet when I get home...

   

Sigh... so as seen in the pic:

- an American Philatelist and an interesting piece of postal history, to wit a letter marked Manual Sort Mail by Canada Post (thanks Richard!)
- some Titanic Stamps (thanks Mark!)
- a lovely Brittannia 10-pound high value stamp and some Canadian stamps (thanks John!)

STOP IT, PEOPLE! I'm trying to cull my collection LOL!

THEN I find out that Leon (who lives about 6-8 houses from me on the same street) is ALSO selling Stuff I Don't Need, so you KNOW I'm going to have to wander over there to have a look, RIGHT?

Think of stamp club as an open university course in history and sociology and geography and economics. These are your textbooks. Buying textbooks is an approved activity for students. You are therefore a woman committed to life-long learning who is investing in personal development. That’s a much better label than obsessive hoarder!

Personally, I am very excited to have found a way to connect fabric to postal and military history this morning, so a certain person who complains about my continually growing fabric hoard will have to shut up!

[Carmen]

Amen, Janet. THAT'S IT! I'm a... student.... yaaaaaaaa!

Collect your fabrics on, my dear woman!
