I have a birthday card from Katerina Nikoltsou in Thessaloniki, Greece.  Thanks.  I see instructions to scan and post this, so I will be doing that...

I'm sure you recognize the ethereal colour, asemic signature, dazzlingly simple and effective use of trash... To see more of Nancy's magic visit:…

WWF’s Earth Hour is a unique annual phenomenon that focuses the world’s attention on our amazing planet, and how we need to protect it. At 8.30pm on 23 March hundreds of millions of people will turn off their lights for one hour, on the same night, all across the world in a huge, symbolic show of support.

First a crazy va-voom and lovely message from crisipanty, whose work on mailart 365 is witty and inspiring. This one is number 84 - love how you said 'destination England' so it didn't spoil the surprsie for me.
