Entry #81 Russia - 13.08.2010.

Hello again from Russia!

This particolar letter (the heviest cover I've got in last year) have come to me

from Tolya Serafinas, wonderful pen pall that I've met on www.interpals.net. It have traveled

from 29.07.2010 - 13.08.2010. to get me, and I've got two clock mini sheets (one separately in special cover and one along with FDC

on same theme with special seal on that un-used cover).

Sometimes it makes me so sad, that my post office doesn't have those kind of 'stamp-packages' as other posts do.. Still I believe they will bring out some class in that field.

And again, happiness isn't happiness if you don't feel a little bit sadness ;)

Thank you very much Tolya!

Entry #74 Russia - 01.07.2010.

Finally the voice from Russia have come,
my postcard have arrived 'K jevo dome' :)

Today I've got the postcard from Krasnodar, which was found in 1973 with previous name
Ekaterinodar. In 1920. it was re-named in Krasnodar. It's architecture embraces several periods
in town's development and reflect its historical features.

Many thanks to you too dear Vladimir, I'll respond soon :)

Item have been sent on 16.06.2010. and came to me today 01.07.2010. so
it took 15 days in travel which is nice :)

Today 2 in a row!

Hello again - it's a lovely day and two guests came to stay with me!
From India there have been days since last letter but as a member of Joint-Issue stamp chain on Facebook, I've got a letter with 4 variety of Joint-issue mint m/s and some 'stand-alone' mint stamps of India.
Hereby are those (below letter) which I've exchanged as I don't have in my collection any Joint-issue from Montenegro and there is one of which I know about..

Thank you Khrist Sur on your trust!

And again Russia is here with me - a second letter from Tolya came today and I was nice surprised by souvenir sheets of 150th anniversary of New Hermitage and History of the Russian State (which is high above - first picture). Stamp issues are from year of 2002 and they look very nice, mint and in excellent condition. Thank you very much Tolya!!!

A pen-pal friends :)

Hello again,

Today a first swan of England came to me - a lovely long letter from Lene D. - I am looking forward to retrieve another one soon :) so nice to have exchange of ideas and nice letters :)

Two weeks ago I've got two in a row, letters from Vladimir and Tolya - both from Russia :)
Vladimir's envelope arrived so wet - it was raining outside ( so thanks to a inventor of laserjet printers the paper inside, kept essential information ;) - and Tolya have presented me nice ms sheets of bridges and nice traditional hats of Russian people :)

Reminded me of elemental school :)

Thank you both, Vladimir and Tolya :)
