Hello All,
I have been interested and collecting stamps since I was very young. Given my busy offshore work life and a family of four, my stamp collecting has taken a back seat for many years so I have a pile of stamps to go through. I am now heading into my retirement years so I need to get back to it.
My mother recently passed away and as I was going through some of her old things I came across a 25c Canada War Savings Stamp (The twin engine bomber). When I looked online, I was directed to your forum.
I look forward to chatting with you.
BR, Airforce Brat.

Welcome to our Forum!
Sorry for the delay in changing your membership status to that which allows you to post elsewhere on the forum.
I share your interest in war savings stamps, albeit the ones from the U.S.
Please let me know if you have questions or encounter any problems -- I look forward to your active participation here.
