Default Are There Any Outstanding Trades With Me?


Hi -

If there are any outstanding trades with me, please send me an e-mail
and we'll discuss what's going on and get it cleared up. I want to
make sure that everyone gets something out of the trade.

I've finally started to look at my stamps again after about a year
break in the action for health reasons and college.

Let's take this to e-mail, OK? Thanks!

Hi Tracy, hope you are doing well....

Looks like Tiscali have finally fixed the problems we have seen
over the last 2 weeks or so - I can now see all new postings
from everyone again!

Hope the string of complaints didn't upset anyone not involved
at the time, but it was very frustrating to be told there was
nothing wrong, when we all noticed the same errors at the
same time.

How's the SNA Tourist office doing - still selling sand to Egypt?

Regards to all,

David / 007.1-and-a-bit.

Default Selling Sand to Egypt.

The original posting asked in jest if SNA is still selling sand to Egypt.
You may not believe this, but Saudi Arabia, owner of the biggest or second
biggest mass of sand in the world DOES import sand. It is special
sharp-edged sand to be used for sand-blasting. The sand in the Saudi desert
has been blown and tossed around by the wind for millennia, is smooth-edged,
and is not suitable for that purpose.

I dunno... I've been out of the loop lately. Good to see you
back, however!

Yo Tracy, just wanted to remind you that I have not received the
Netherlands stamps.
Just because you didn't get specific Scott numbers is no excuse, just
send the entire batch of duplicate stamps you have, all 10,327 of them.
:-)

I am having second thoughts; Don't send any Netherlands stamps. After
four years of waiting I no longer collect the Netherlands or any other
country. Joint Issues is all that I am interested in right now. Just
send all the Middle East and Africa you have, all 5,399 of them. :-)


You will not get my SNA / PNA proofs! Jamais! No way, ho-say (Jose)!

Gee, all I asked for were catalog numbers and I get all this grief.
I dunno if I should ask for a transfer to the SNA outpost on the
PNA border.

I think I'll go back to collecting Green Stamps from Grand Union.

They don't need snow, they make their own. Dubai has a huge indoor ski
slope, and the necessary manufacturing equipment.

Hmmm.... I have heard something about this in the past. Perhaps that
was the story in my sub-conscious when I asked the question!

What about the sand dredged up for the construction of Palm Island.
Is it of any use, or rounded grains also?

David.
