Problems with mail for Greece?

Katerina Nikoltsou was one of the people who said they'd like some of the old photos I was clearing out. On 22 April I posted some to her, but this morning this was returned to me. I've just been to my local post office to ask why. There is nothing on the envelope to explain where it's been and why it's come back to me 3 weeks after posting. The member of the post office counter staff could not explain - he looked carefully at all the details: what postage had been paid, what was on the…

Mail from Jimmy Connors

Jimmy Connors always likes to test the quality of international mail services, but this one, I think only just made it!

Who started this A&P?

Mick Boyle sent me this A&P, and neither of us can identify the person who started it. I think that after my adds, it will be 'finished' and I'd like to send it back to where it started. Can anyone help us?…

No more requests for old photos, please.

No more requests for old photos, please. I have more than enough requests for what's available at the moment. I'm still sorting through these photos and there will be more and I''ll keep a list of the names of people who've contacted me so far.

This photo is the original pile of photographic material I inherited (10+ years ago). Many of the photos taken by my father are now in archives (in the UK and other countries), and I've got into family history research, scanning and…

Old photos for collage?

Years ago I inherited lots and lots of old photos. I'm near the end of sorting through all these, have scanned those I wanted to share in the family history world, used some myself in a collage series for Circulaire 321, and now just want rid of them. Some go back to the 1910s, others are late 1940s or early 1950s, and there's a bit of everything in between. Some people love these as collage material. If anyone here would like some, message me.…
