1. 2011 Cyprus stamps list available.

   Posted on 10:14am Saturday 18th Dec 2010

   Hi everyone,
   
   I'm sorry but I haven't been keeping the blog page up to date here recently. That's mainly because I've found an easier way to keep everyone up to date by using Networked Blogs on facebook via my Cyprus Stamps Blogspot.
   
   The blogspot has stamp news, video footage, info on what's happening in and around Cyprus and what we get up to since we moved from UK in 2004.<BLOG_BREAK>
   
   Posting this way makes life much simpler for me as I can post directly to facebook and twitter at one time. It's totally necessary when holding down a full time job as well as trying to keep up with friends and fellow stamp collectors.
   
   It may be that in the future I may close the Cyprus Stamps website blog page and work totally from my Blogspot - but, we will see how it goes for a little while longer. Please add my Blogspot to your list of favourites or follow me to keep up to date.

   We made the Cyprus Grapevine!
   
   

   A few weeks ago we were contacted with reference to taking part in an interview for the Cyprus Grapevine monthly magazine. We were a little taken aback and at first a bit hesitant but we prepared some information for them and a few days later received a telephone call with some further questions.
   
   Read it in the August issue!

   
   Find us on pages 76 and 77 in the Our World section of the Cyprus Grapevine:
