as you all know I am Canadian...........

so the fact the England cricket team lost the Ashes in 3 matches means little to me .. yeah.. sure... I hear you say :-(

well I have to say how impressed I am that the Australians have not gloated over the win the way the English did 2 years back when they won the Ashes in London... the English (Royal Mail) issued 4 stamps to commemorate the English achievement.. yesterday Australia Post issued two stamps to commemorate the Australian win.. and considering the Australians won the series 5 - 0 I would have thought they had justification to issue 5 gloating stamps.... so all credit to Australia.. maybe I will become a citizen after all :-)


These are the stamps.. in what is called a Miniature Sheet... enjoy.. Michael
