Some stamps that me and Vittore Baroni in Italy collaborated on a couple of years ago.

Martha - I'd post all your mail now if I were you - it can only get worse before Xmas!   I support the postal strike too ( and all the others ) -worrying times for all when the country is governed by idiots!

The Post Office is in a mess with depots chock-a-block with letters and parcels. that is what a neighbour who is a postman told me, he managed to get hold of our mail and brought it to us.
I do not know if the international mail is actually leaving the country. No information. Anybody knows?
I feel that I cannot post until this clears up. What does everybody think?
I have everything printed and ready. So annoying, but still I support the strike as postal workers have been offered the raise in salary they deserve in exchange for longer hours! It is a joke.

Received from A1, my own envelope, reworked, and a sheet of stamps. Thank you Michael!

Assuridly so.  or to put it another way - upon the upturned sundial on the mantlepiece.    I keep my stamps in a little box just about  eye line in my workroom along with several badges, pins, old erasers and a chewed toffee.  I made that last bit up - I hate toffees!

I am not good at math but it was a good investment.

Lucky you!   About time the post office made ammends for all the price hikes!

For once I got to report a good experience, for me, with the Post Office. Years ago I bought loads of second class stamps and a few first class just in case. I had to exchange them now for the new barcoded ones. In total I sent 81 old stamps and got back 81 new ones, all of them first class, costing now 95 pence. I originally payed much less! It feels so good!

I am going to put a sticker on my envelopes in support of our postal workers.

Comment by Mail Art Martha on August 16, 2022 at 6:18am

Sorry to bring bad news but the situation here is nasty.

Our Postal workers are revolting against measures which will give them a meagre increase in salary in exchange for worse working conditions.

Kevin our lovely postperson has told me that it will not affect my outgoing post. That is the good news, but the deliveries will be affected.

Comment by Mail Art Martha on April 6, 2022 at 6:38pm

Do not worry about me, I would not fall for the Stamp scam. and I am not in Facebook. The post office it is, even if I have to sell the house.

Katerina, I suspect our postage is the most expensive in the world.

This is  disgusting because the British PO is racking in the lolly from their packets distribution.

By the way. Kevin my postman did apologize this morning! He agrees with me that the PO is trying to get rid of the letter side of the business and concentrate on packets.
