STAMPS

Mark took on his late mum's stamp album and has been stamping himself since the children were little - Boxing Day was the family's traditional stamping day. While at Laguna Quays Respite this past week, Mark updated it with stamps from 2010 - first chance he's had to spend a whole day dedicated to it. He gets less and less stamps now due to Email and Texting.

Mark had his late mum's stamp album of the 1930's valued. The valuer suggested he keep it as a family heirloom. Investor collectors were not short of 1930's Australian stamps as that era saw "every man and dog" a stamp collector.
