Hello , I've been down at the coast again - fighting the wind and rain but loving it! I was brought up by the sea and I just find that every now and then I need to get some sea air. Even on cold and stormy days there's something wonderful
about the sea. Actually, I managed to get a bit of a deal at the hotel I stayed at too, which reminded me to suggest to you that you look at seaside hotel deals this month if you feel like a cheap break (who doesn't!). If you're happy sitting in the lounge reading a good book when the weather's bad, now would be a good time to do that for cheap. It's worth having a look at Booking.com or Travelzoo to see what last-minute offers they have on right now. |

When Do New Stamps Come In? What Shall I Do With Old Ones?
|
What to do with our old stamps. British stamps are about to get an upgrade as the Royal Mail starts to officially add barcodes to them. Stamps without a barcode will be obsolete after 31st July 2023; an extension to the previous deadline of 31st January, which gives people more time to use up old stamps, or swap them out for the new barcoded ones.
