Stamp collection
We are moving to a Retirement home so are downsizing. I have a collection of stamps which I have been saving on and off for more than 60 years. As far as I know there are no valuable stamps in the collection, as it has just been a hobby. Over the years I have collected First Day covers as well as hoarded all sorts of stamps. I would just like them to go to someone interested as none of my own family are. It is more sentimental than financial. So I am keen to see if I have any offers, for the lot, please. Need to be picked up from Chartwell area, Hamilton.

What are your supermarket pet peeves?
Fruit fondlers, meat misplacers and that guy who took a leak in aisle nine.
Supermarkets can be interesting places, filled with interesting characters. They are strange, sometimes seamy and even occasionally hostile environments where people behave in a unique manner.
