Refreshed from our Mallorcan package holiday, we have got down to work and found a great selection of new stamps to include in our lists. These are mainly from Alaouites, Algeria, Cameroons, Cilicia, Fezzan, Niger, Obock, Chad, Gabon, Ivory Coast, Madagascar, Mauritania and Moheli. Hopefully we can fill some of your gaps in these and other colonies. Thanks for all your good wishes for our annual break. While it was good to get away, we discovered that the all-inclusive hotel holiday is not for us. While many of the guests were on their 10th stay or even more at the hotel, we much prefer to look after our own catering etc. Lying in the sun round the pool all day with free drinks on tap will suit many but is rather wasted on us who like to get about and find out about the local places, people and restaurants etc. However it made a change and was not unenjoyable. Last week in Eastbourne was the pre-Wimbledon Tennis tournament and, for a change, the weather was absolutely delightful for the occasion, bringing hoards of visitors to our little resort. By now Wimbledon will be in its full throes. Regards to all,   Terry Garcia
