Three years ago we moved from a mild climate to a high-humidity climate. I can now confirm that the gum on German stamps could stick two cars together. I've got a huge number of MUH stamps now seemingly adhered to Hagners for life. This is despite using a de-humidifier.

To paraphrase Brechinite - we have a saying in Australia, SH!T!

I love higher grade (red) copper coins but I wont get too involved with collecting them living in Florida. They tend to get spots from the humidity. I collect used stamps.

I was a teacher for 34 years and never swore in front of the kids. Obviously the admin would have not liked it if I had! But many of these innocent young kids had very creative language. I'm pretty sure that as long as we don't get carried away Kira and Ari can cut us a bit of slack!
