Animal Tales stamps available in the U.S., but no Paddington Bear
I
was loving
the Royal Mail's Animal Tales stamp series so much, I joked that I wanted to move to London. Well, thanks to Suburban Misfit for pointing out that I only have to move my behind
to my nearest post office.
Sadly, though, no Paddington Bear (who's totally my favorite). The only characters in common between the U.S. and Britain are Maisy and the Hungry Caterpillar. Here, we have Wilbur (the pig from Charlotte's Web), Fox in Socks from Dr. Seuss, the Wild Thing from Maurice Sendak, Curious George, Olivia the pig, and Frederick the mouse.
I have to say that I like the British version better (sorry USPS). More white space. More ... I don't know. Inimitable British style. Ahh, well, maybe I'll get a postcard from one of my London fans. [hint hint]
And who knew the first class rate was up to 39 cents? Not me. Whoops. I'll be receiving some bill payments back in the mail tomorrow.

Anti-Cheating Wedding Ring

These marriage vows along with the tell-tale ring should be enough for spouses to trust one another but if not, there's a product out there to ease the mind of any jealous partner. Called the ‘Anti-Cheating Ring', it has inward engraving on the underside of the ring that leaves an obvious stamp on the wearer's skin with the little phrase "I'm Married!"
