Do I still get stamps when I retire? I haven't finished using last years yet or the year before.

:sad: Tight barstewards, it would be handy for a poor pensioner at Xmas time too - It's damned expensive sending 3 cards a year :chuckle Who knows I might live until I'm 90 and the stamps I get this year would have to last me 21 years, well and the ones I have from previous years. :cuppa
