It’s that time of year when dozens of Christmas gift catalogues start spamming the newspapers and in an idle moment’s perusal I spotted this superb postcard aeroplane from a company called Heal’s. So cool! It is jolly expensive though; £4 with £4.95 p+p – upwards of $15, I believe. Boo! But if you wanted a really lovely card to send to a special Postcrosser then this is so fun. And take no notice of the term “kid’s toy”! It’s available here.
Super-cool postcard for Postcrossing!

Postcard from Belarus
28 10 2010Dang hell, I almost just reported my own fair blog as spam! That would be whack. Belarus isn’t just about chess prodigies, it also does nice postcards. And stamps! Love it.

28 10 2010Like good wine, horrible cheese and Caprice’s botox wounds, a good view can never get old …well, maybe. Ooh, look! Pretty!

I’m back like Tupac! Plus, postcard from Romania
28 10 2010Hey gang! So sorry I’ve been absent for *cough* five months, I do hope you can pardon my errant ways. Disappointingly little has changed and I count the News of the World’s ruddy annoying decision to start charging for content as one of the bigger events to have passed. I suppose we’ll put it down to sunny days running through meadows as the primary reason for my abandonment but don’t worry, winter’s here and it’s queer, and there’s nothing I love more than a bit of blawgin’ when The Big Freeze keeps me housebound 24/7.
Anyway, during my absence I’ve sent and received about a milli Postcrossing postcards so now I’ll attempt to blog the things. Here’s a good’un that hails from Romania. Its caption reads: “Terracotta statuette called ‘The Thinker’, Hamangia Culture, 5000-4600 BC.” Quite, like, old!

Postcard from Finland
4 05 2010Finland’s more than flipping brill rally drivers and hockey, y’know. It also houses this beauty which at first made me think I’d been Postcrossed by a Greek, if you will. According to its flipside notation, this ‘card shows the Parliament House National museum. And it came with the kind of stamp that makes Brits suspicious of those funny little Europeans [sadly not scanned]. Love!

Postcard from Belarus
4 05 2010I received this beautiful green-green-green postcard from the chess prodigy-factory that is Belarus. The sender tells me her country is full to bursting with forests, rivers and lakes. Healthy, innit!

Postcards to Germany and US
4 05 2010Hope you’re all having fun in the sun, my pretties! I”m having some kind of issue with my external file server so please excuse me while I smack my head on the table. My space bar is also wreaking havoc as it continues to die sosorryifIwritelikethis – #fail. Anyway, these are two Earth From The Air postcards I recently sent to Postcrossers – the first one showing a crowd of people in Ivory Coast went to the US and the second showing a sandbank on the coast of Queensland, Australia went to Germany. Don’t mean to boast but I love ’em both.
