I am sending quite a great number of mailart for this one. My friend, a mailartist, died so suddenly, and it was his last wish to be able to join this event.
Just to add a little to the info. about the island - one of the island's big personalities was the Rev. Dodgson, who built the church, installed the font and managed to also be one of Lewis Carroll's brothers.
Morice, the mail I sent came back with an "insufficient postage" stamp on it. I showed it to the postmaster who said "hmmm, that's enough postage, no idea why it came back." I asked if I should just mail it again and he said yes. Interesting.
well….I have been tracking my Braille pop-up card envelope package and it hasn’t gotten there yet. It started in NYS on March 6, went to customs in NJ, left the USA and went to G.B. It then went to New Zealand and was not moving until April 5, when it is now in South Africa. I will report when I get a new update. Still holding thumbs for it!
The boneheads at the post office returned it to me. What did I do wrong? [Return to Sender, Country destination must be stated city, state, and zip code required]

I thought only us old time philatelists knew about this stamp-issuing entity.
