Lots of happy posties in our office this morning on hearing their stamps had arrived, they can add them to last years 50 in that special draw at home where they keep pens, 739s, elastic bands & posting pegs. :left:

I started reading above thinking that stamps had arrived this year. I didn't even know that stamps were received, joined in December last year.

The cut off point for newbies is usually around September time, so as you joined after September last year you wouldn't got any, Should do this year, but with the way the company is going it probably can't be guaranteed!
