This will be interrupted in the next few days as Royal Mail honour our Armed Forces.
Armed Forces Week should start on 19 June for deliveries on 20th - 23rd.
Armed Forces Day should start on 23rd June for deliveries on 24th - 26th June.
The British Heart Foundation should follow again after that.
So let's hope some of us receive stamped mail with some of these usages.
OTHER POSTMARKS AND POSTAL MARKINGS
(Reserved for anything interesting that I find, or which is reported to me.)
I'll make a separate blog entry of my Irish journey.
Remember, slogan postmarks appearing in June will be added to this post, so check here before you spend time scanning and emailing.
A reminder of what these monthly listings are for.
For each month I record the different slogans in use, plus the default slogan that is used when there is nothing else.
For each of these I try to record only one of each of the basic two types, plus any that are reversed on square envelopes, which normally only gives three or four.
Occasionally a slogan appears with different line spacing in the same format.
I do not record multiple versions of the same as any of these unless I later get a much better example of one that I showed purely for the record, but which is otherwise not very clear.
The only exception to this, which doesn't seem to happen much these days, is when a slogan is used well out of time.
I mention this only to avoid readers unnecessarily duplicating what has already been provided.
