I wish mine would come, told my mum not to waste money on stamps as I'm getting freebies of which I won't use that many! Dunno if anyone else in my office has received theirs though, must remember to ask on Saturday!

As I only started a couple of months ago I didn't know if I'd get any, but they arrived this morning.

we've 200 staff and no one has received any stamps yet.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Does it say inside:
Robins are OK - but I prefer tits?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Got mine Tuesday, got £25 for them on ebay Wednesday, still got half left from last year so thought may as well get something for them, but I used our lass's ebay account just in case it's frowned upon .

A gift is a gift but HMRC may consider that profit from selling them is liable to income tax. :sad:

In the WCM budget..... :thumbdown
And after a while, you can work on points for style,
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,
So that when they turn their backs on you,
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.
