Hi all.

I used to collect stamps as a kid into my late teens, and after a hiatus of over 10 years, I picked up stamp collecting again. This was two years ago in May.

I have tendency to spread out to thin with many different countries and topicals at the same time. I am trying to do something with that, and are currently focusing on Norway (used), Finnøy (my home island, mostly old postcard and cancellations) and Australia (used). I still add to other collections as well, mainly Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, Iceland and Aden. I also have two topicals which I am accumulating, picking up objects that comes my way without putting much money into it, them being Olympic Winter Games and the Second World War. I also pick up United Fruit Company related material from time to time.

A bit about me, and looking forward to spend some time on the forum.

Welcome yobo to this site. You have interesting collecting areas and it doesn't appear to me that you are spread out too thin. Enjoy the hobby and participate in the discussions on this site often.

Thanks for the welcome mhc99. A bit of focus helped on the spreading out to thin, since I tend to constantly get new ideas for areas to collect. Just have to control myself and not collect everything that pops into my head. :)
