I asked for the Large 1st and 2nd with MA10 and told - "Oh I'll have to put my glasses on" and off the guy went to try to find them. Over 5 mins later managed to find them. I got the impression that he was sorting through a pile of booklets. OK so far. Then I asked for the MA10 books standard 1st and 2nd. I got the 12 x 1st and 6 x 1st booklets. BUT I was then told that the MA10 version in the 2nd class hasn't been issued yet - "Probably in a few months". After asking him to check, I still got the same reply. Am I really going mad or are they inventing the rules as they go along? I later asked one of the 'floating' helpers on the stand as to why I didn't receive the single special stamp (with the two monarch's heads) in my regular order for new issues. Reply - Oh well it's difficult you see - it was being issued in the miniature sheet"!!!<br />Doug Fairhurst (Enfield)Dougnoreply@blogger.com
