Stamps

It was a busy time on the weekend. I managed to save up 17 envelopes with 50c stamps where the postmark missed the stamp.

After a couple of hours of soaking them all in the bath I ended up with 17 stamps ready to be glued on and used again.

A triumph of recycling.

I think I can take that as a compliment (either way).

I heard that a thin smear of glue over a stamp can repel the postmark, enabling re-use by your addressees. Something to think about for the frugal not afraid to dabble in criminality.

Hmmmm. Something to consider.

I trust your whole family was also cleaning themselves in the same bath.
