Seasonal greetings to you all. If you would like to have a philatelic quiz over the festive season and were not able to attend our Festive Quiz, one of the question sheets is available on the Gallery page until 26th December. Contact us with the answer (or find out what the answers are). Depending on interest, there is another quiz sheet available for the New Year. Good luck.
The next meeting on 7th January 2025 will be our traditional Presidential Display when Iain Wells will Entertain us all. The following meeting on 14th January 2025 will be for members to show up to 16 sheets of stamps and postcards on the subject of "Continental Drift".
Looking forward to the Members' displays on 28th January in 2025, Gerald is looking for four members to show 36 or 48 sheets on four or five boards, with preference given to those of you who have not displayed as many before. It is hoped that this will encourage new participants in a supportive environment.
Richard Farman's display will now take place on 21st January 2025, replacing the afternoon subject of the Letter "L".
Meetings are on Tuesday afternoons. They start at 1:30 pm with a bourse for members to sell and exchange items of interest. The full meeting starts at 2:00 pm. A half-time break allows members to view the first half of the display and take refreshments.
Please look at the Gallery for pictures from some of our previous meetings. If you click on the picture, you can see more text explaining what you can see.

The next Knowle Stamp Fair will be on Sunday 19th January 2025 at Knowle Village Hall between 9:30 am and 2:30 pm. The fairs are always on the third Sunday of each month, apart from May due to the Knowle Fun Run. Do come along and support your local stamp fair. You never know what you may find. Ask dealers, other than your usual contacts, and you may be pleasantly surprised at what they have hidden away.
Bernadette would like any unwanted stock cards or packaging to be saved for her as she needs it urgently to pack up stamps for Oxfam. If you can help, please contact Paul through the email on the Contacts page.
