I Couldn't Believe Myself......

I went to local post office to purchase new stamps (Virtues) on June 13, 2011. I only bought 10 sets of the stamps! I couldn't believe myself that I only bought 10 sets..... it was for the very first time in the past 12 years that I bought very few stamp sets for new issue. I remember I could simply buy up to 100 sets of stamps for many stamp issues a few years back! The record high number of stamp set I ever bought was the Tiger Joint Issue, of which I bought more than 1000 sets!

I sent out two first day covers to my friends from overseas using two sets of the stamps I bought. I also used one set of stamps to put on a few plain covers sent to a friend in Thailand. I put one set in my stamp album. The left over was just six sets! So, I have extra six sets of the stamps. Yes, just extra six sets only! I could use one or two sets in near future for sending letters....

2011 - Virtues

Pos Malaysia released a set of 10 stamps on June 13, 2011. The topic of the stamp set is virtues. I personally do not find these stamps are attractive. The price of a blank cover is now priced at 50 sen, an increase of 20 sen.... Harga RON97 naik 20 sen, harga gula naik 20 sen, harga sampul naik jugak 20 sen....

PSM Stamp Fair

I went to PSM stamp fair today in MBPJ Library. The crowd was good. It was really nice to catch up with many of my fellow collector friends there. Some of the people portrayed in the photos below are regular visitors to this blog... hehe

Hello.......

Hello..... I miss you.... :)

The technology of communication has advanced tremendously. I'm getting my iPhone 4 very soon. Looking back to the technology of communication, I just couldn't help not to hold back my nostalgic feeling of those communication devices in 1970s and 1980s....
