I know fingers are pointing at me, I can only draw your attention to negative evidence. I have not been to neither Warrington nor Bristol/Bath area for many months.And would I need to post one to myself?

Colin's being very quiet... 
As it turns out most, (make that all), of my theories were wrong... But we had to start somewhere!

Actually its a triple negative.

And I wouldn't go to Somerset to post to myself. There's an envelope on my desk from another stamp producer postmarked Bath.
And who has done initialed stamps before?

The one I received yesterday has the usual invitation then adds " She wishes to discuss the care and culture of her pet oysters with you."  It is then signed as above in Steve's post. The lower left and right corners contains "C" and "M".Postmarked January 8 from Warrington Mail Centre with a bilingual Welsh/English airmail sticker. 

My sleuthing is centered around the limited number of people that know my twin interests of oysters and modern Welsh philately, have my address (CA Forum folks and one or two here whose cinderellas I have subscribed to), and who have my name very slightly mis-spelled in their database.  Tongue

I originally suspected Steve, though others are possible...
Cheers -

Actually, me too!
 
So, assuming Steve wasn't double bluffing in his denial, let's formally accuse Colin. At the very least we need to know who to thank Big smile

I have reason to believe that Steve was at least double bluffing.  Probably quadruple bluffing.  If not more.

Steve - j'accuse!

PS - thank you!
