All year round, folks, but at Christmas there are so many stamps it is a crime to just bin them.
Don't forget to keep a good margin of envelope round them.

I should think they will be happy however you send them, Colin, the main thing is to leave enough of the envelope round them, some people ruin them by cutting off the edges of the perforations.

Thanks for the info Liz.

Colin, the address is at the beginning of the thread but if you ask at some charity shops they will take them too.
