Stampex 2026??

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Looking at the threads below in this area of the forum, there seems to have been an attempt every couple of years to resurrect the famous/infamous Cinderella Stamps Forum in-person get-together of yesteryear, but it hasn't risen like Lazarus yet since well before the covid interrruption.
Colin and I exchanged messages recently, and we both agreed that we're due another go this year, and that we would both be up for it if the timing is right.

Whilst it doesn't have to be in London around the in-person Stampex at the end of October (https://www.stampexinternational.com/visiting - 28th-31st October - so the Saturday is Halloween which means Colin is obviously going to need to bring along some Dead Letter Office specials for us all to enjoy ), that does seem like a good time and place to start.

And Colin, who is, after all, the sine qua non of an in-person get-together, said it could potentially work for him, although life does tend to find ways to intrude unhelpfully at our age.

Other suggestions welcomed however.

I will have a go at setting up a poll. DONE - albeit on a separate post in this section of the forum.
