homarus Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I think they should be coming up with stamps that are more relevent to the Isle of Man in the 21st century? Such as -----------A smiley traffic warden putting a ticket on a windscreen? Or-----------A Yellow D.O.T. van, with six guys in the back drinking tea,laughing at the motorists? Or---------------A state of the art Life size ,Dandara first time buyer kit house (should just about fit on a postage stamp) Or ----------An idyillic picture of a country road at Santon ,complete with raw sewage running across it? Etc,etc,etc,------------------------------------------etc! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
