I'm just interested to see how many mail artists in the UK right now. Are you one?

Sad news just in that Dawn lost her long fight with cancer recently. Deepest sympathy goes out to all her friends and family.Continue

Michael - yes, IM aware of just how much our royal mail has hijed the prices up over the years. after i stepped away from mail art the first time, i went into postcrossing in abig way and enjoyed swapping souvenir pstcards for a few years. then i stepped away from that when royal mail did away with the postcard price stamps and made it more expensive for euro and international mailings. im still to find out just how pricy its got since then as ive not mailed anything outher than the odd card or official documents within the uk. something tells me my wallets going to have a funny turn.
Heather - O shame about the Ryosuke Cohen "braincell" . I'm pretty sure he'll send you another if you write to him! Postage to Japan, Australia, USA etc. is pretty horrendous these days - one of the reasons I've cut back being a poor pensioner and supporting our son through his degree etc. After 15 years I expect you'll notice the difference. I really miss the local Oxfan shop which used to sell unfranked stamps in big packets. They closed as the rents were all put up. It's still an empty shop now - three years later! Crazy times eh? Don't get me started!
Michael - well im not rushing headfirst into things just yet. Ive got plenty of time for that. What I have been doing is familierising myself with all my supplies after so long. im finding stuff ive been searching the house for years, im even find stuff id forgotten i had. several half created items that ive forgotten my original intention for, but ill be giving them a new meaning soon.
Ive even found an old braincell from ryosuke, that sadly ive had to throw away as somewhere over the years its been destroyed beyond salvation.
Heather - Not much goes on here really but nice to catch up and sometimes someone will post a project. I thought there would be more due to the lockdown but very few so far. #staysafe
