What I collect: Used only - Australia, Great Britain, Canada, Ireland, Western Europe, and Scandinavia, from 1900 to date. That keeps me busy. To be honest I am trying to avoid becoming a WW collector.

When ever someone creates a thread like this - I think " there can't be many stamps about this" then an hour later after browsing and looking its a case of "gosh there are a lot of stamps about this - why have I not noticed this before!" thanks for drawing my attention to this topic

sharonb,
I know exactly what you mean. To me, the poster child for this thought would be JeffS. He has taken the theme of "Oranges" beyond where I could imagine and regularly adds new content. He's developed a very impressive thematic collection.
