As in 2023, August has been a new slogan desert, so far. As expected the default British Heart Foundation slogan continues from July.
My thanks to the anonymous reader who sent this first day cover of the King Charles III Union Flag stamp yesterday (13 August) from Nottingham Mail Centre (not an area we see often).
