| Mon Jul 20th | All face to face meetings are cancelled while concerns over the Coronavirus impact remain. However, if you were a stamp collector in your youth and you still have your stamp collection, why not get out your album, postcards and loose stamps and enjoy it again? Whether you are in ‘self - isolation’ or at home with others, postage stamps are a wonderful way to relax and enjoy what was ‘the world’s greatest hobby’’. For Example An example of a Queen Victoria stamp used in London & a similar stamp overprinted for use in Zululand OR A postcard used in 1899 showing Richmond Hill & sent to Germany OR A Postcard sent from Truro, Cornwall to Clydesdale Gardens in Richmond Enjoy your Stamp Collection Again !
