In Honor Of My 50th Post A Contest For You...

Hurmmmm I think I prefer to sit and celebrate with a fine Islay and good Cuban.... *sigh* but sadly One is banned here and well the other I can't have for at least six more weeks.... Oh well I guess Lorcett and a glass of milk will have to do until the docs say I'm better.

Thanks again to all those that participated. When I get an idea for another contest I will try again... Maybe what does my whole collection scale in at? .... will need to find a heavy duty scale though....

Well done Spanishmoss and Scotzm!
Great contest, thanks Chief!

Congratulation Spanishmoss and Scotzm!
Chief, it was a great contest, many participated
24 is my birthday date and I almost choose it as a guess but finally decide on 29

Sorry for the delayed response guys and gals, but the weather here has been crappy at best. With that said my internet has been nonexistent. The packages were mailed off last week so you should get them soon. All were mailed using stamps... the best I could. Sadly the post office didn't have any higher value stamps so the highest value was a $1 stamp Scotzm... was trying to get you a $5 or $10 one for the postage, but they were fresh out... That and I truly hate US SA stamps... they don't soak off very well.

Spanishmoss ... you ended up with some modern German commem kilo.. some souvenir sheets and a very nice assortment of German post cards.

Scotzm. I tried to cram as much as I could in the bubble mailer, but you ended up with about 6oz of classic US kilo and about $8 of higher value modern SA's on the cover.

I hope you all enjoy your new finds and keep on collecting. Next month I will try to host another give away. I know my wife was more than happy to see me send some stuff off :)

Chief,

Many, many thanks for all the goodies. The boys and I had a blast going through everything you sent. It will all be greatly treasured!

A really crammed bubble mailer arrived today... THANKS! A great selection of goodies including perfins and cinderellas. I shall have many hours of solitude sorting as I drink whisky and listen to skiffle music...I shall live on roots and berries. And visions. Well, at least until the drink runs out or the drugs kick in!



Many thanks Chief.Fontenot

Not a problem ;) Glad you will enjoy the selection. I still have yet to get the photos off my iphone... I just hate updating and cant hook the think up till I update my IOS :( maybe when I go into town with some better wifi...
