My short hiatus

It's been years since I bought my Jurassic laptop and this Tuesday morning it just left me.

I am going to have a new one with help from a friend. I will be back this weekend.

Promise!

Postcrossing #2

This is my first cat postcard and my first irregular shaped (quite big as well) postcard. I think it says "Hi folks!" that is according to Google translate. The rest I didn't try to understand but since this is my first cat postcard, it is loved.

Metered stamp
One thing is that the sender didn't have a nice stamp but that is fine.

Postcrossing #1

This is the first postcrossing postcard I got. Too bad that the post office decided to stamp the front of the postcard. An act that should not be done as I heard but the Makati Central Post Office still does.

The card shows a converted Trabant. A simple but good card.

Here is the clean and stamped postcard.

This is the back of the postcard with the stamp from Neddy.

Dating postcards

When mail comes at home most of the time (I think all) of the time I am at work. The post office seems to collect a number of postcards and mails before they send it to me. 

Anyways I am still not done organizing what postcards I have into albums. (I need to also show how I organize my postcards in the future.). That means most of what I will be getting will be undated since its also my problem reading the cancellation dates on most of the stuff I get.

Dating things gets a bit easier when you have swap sites like postcrossing and swap-bot.

So here are some of the postcards and cards I got. Soon details of each postcard and mail will be shown. Promise!

Hello

This blog will be dedicated to what my friends send me from abroad. I think of them friends because they are kind enough to send me what they have.

I will try to post pictures as well. Like the ones below. Sorry but I just get them from my camera. These stuff are just a taste of what is to come. I have lots of stuff to post.
