I don't think I have spoken to many people lately who have not had a Winter bug or some sort of down time lately. Debbie cannot talk at the moment but of course there seems to be compelling reasons to be on the phone. The rain has come again so another good stamp day. I have found a couple recently that I haven't seen before. A hundred yar ago before email and SMS, telegrams were sent as the fastest way to send a message. In Spain they put stamps on them and used a hole punch to disfigure it afterwards so it couldn't be used again. I have a mint stamp that was worth $115 and now is down to $4 because of the hole. The best find was two stamps with no perforations still joined together eg becuase the item was more expensive they needed two stamps but cut around them both rather than individually. Now two are valued at $230 but joined together would significantly increase them but I am not sure by how much.
