I think I will also start 2012's issue at the same time, just to be sure

I'm hoping to manage more than one stamp this year - be careful what you wish for! |

I'll believe that when I see it.
But I'll leave some cash in the bank just in case it's not a joke. Keith |

I just put £1 in a deposit account. I reckon compound interest should cover Colin's next

Colin, next year you should try selling your cards (and stamps) a couple of weeks before Valentine's day when there is more interest, I think most men go off the notion of Valentine's by the 15th February, can't comment about women of course. And maybe add a service that gives you permission to send them anonymously to third parties..

. . . not the best idea, Steve.
Your plan immediately lost 20% to admin costs, and with interest rates at .05% wont be worth £1 again until 2034. (Or later depending on the reslts of the Irish Election)
Just look forwards to Colins Issues with a brave heart, a doughty Spirit and a fat wallet.

I spotted a comment from one of the older collectors on another forum that said:
''If you collect stamps you don't just do the nice ones.'' How sad.
How many substandard designs would it take before they tarnish the value of the 'nice' ones?
PLEASE no-one out there ever buy any of my stamps for any other reason than you like them.
