Any stamps collector here ? Our Mail service released yesterday a new one :d

I do still have three books pretty full with stamps, but I don't think I've really taken any significant time for that hobby in at least 10 years :d 

 

These are cool, maybe there's space for them in my books :d 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

well, Sweden has gazillon of medals at WOGs so I guess that would not be economically smart for your NOC to pay off everyone :p

:SWE Like :GBR is a monarchy.  It is only Republics that bribe athletes. The rest of us compete for glory.  :stars:

We're just getting out of "soft" lockdown here in Beijing (don't ask what "hard" lockdown is).  After months of not being able to find Bing Dwen Dwen anywhere in this country, I stopped by a random gas station by my place the other day to find this.  Not even the surviving Olympic shops have this sort of supply.

Reminds me of the true story of my cousin’s schoolboy son, who once made a small fortune when he found a supply of ultra-rare & valuable :MON Minion Candy (no, I don’t either) in a small Polski Skłep here in Edinburgh.
