23. It is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British monarch upside down.

Whats the betting that Ionns puts all his stamps on upside down? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Aye Bill yer right enough, when I worked in local government, part of my duties was to send a weekly report to head office.
In my defence- I said that the stamps were the right way up - only the envelopes were up side down.

In Virginia it is illegal to sell cotton after sundown!

(It is also illegal to do a lot of other things after sundown too, but I will leave this up to your imagination.)

Just FYI, Virginia is in the middle of the Bible Belt. (Full of CBNers! Everywhere they ur!)

bobbie, please don't even think things like, let alone type them out, those days are long gone for me and i pray to all the gods (including herne the hunter !!!!) that it will remain that way.
I could, however, pretend to be pregnant if i ever see a policeman with one of those big helmets ( i dare you all to ignore the very obvious temptation to get rude and nasty with my last sentence), that would be quite something to tell the grandchildren x
