Well, just taken up an interest in stamp collecting after a forty year break! In my (olden) days its was noses against stamp-shop windows (not many of them now) or approvals passed round the school yard.
But now it's a lot easier with this interweb thing; the site run by Rowan Baker is very, very, good.
What's on offer is easy to find, easy to see at large scale and often the actual stamp you might purchase. And if you want a chat and feel like you're talking to a fellow enthusiast he's on the end of the phone too.
