lux1288, I just checked for these Victory stamps in my catalogue and find them to be fascinating. I only have a few hundred New Zealand stamps but look forward to hopefully acquiring these in the future.

You're welcome,

You need perhaps, some west australian weather
50 odd days straight over 30 degrees.

Thanks again Rod :) However, I'm not too sure I'd enjoy such conditions! haha! I lived in Florida for 5 years, and I must say I'm happy back home in freezing cold Nova Scotia, it's -6 deg right now!. It was too hot down south! I'll remain curled on my couch with a hot cloth on my nose whilst reading everyones posts on here...downtime, ahhh.
My husband jokes SCF is my new Facebook, haha! He's right :)

-6 ! heaven forbid.

West Australian thermometers do not go down that low,
we have to import them from Victoria Australia
where they have similar ridiculous weather.

Oh well, back to the pina colada, sun glasses
and seagrass sombrero.

It's March and I have yet to turn on the
hot water in the shower.

Come, now, Rodney. I've been 50 years or so in Melbourne, and I can remember it dropping below 0 degrees C on maybe three or four occasions. It's currently around 20. Sooo much nicer than that dreadful weather on the other side of the Nullarbor

Ugh! I don't envy you one bit, Rod. I don't like the heat on a good day ... but 50 straight days at that temp? My hometown in Portland, Oregon (Northwestern US) had less than 10 days at that temp last summer ... and that was too many!

Riley, I think I can put that down to some of you
lot having an inuit gene present somewhere

Such temperature do offer a great excuse
for stamp collecting though

Nice scan Phil! I too would like to see a set
of high definition mint unhinged.
Certainly a nice set of stamps.
