As you may imagine, with this unusually warm weather, our small resort is overflowing with sun-seekers. As this catalogue comes out, we have our annual "Airbourne" which is 4 days of Chinooks, Typhoons, Wing-walkers, Spitfires and Red Arrows. We are situated pretty close to the action and have a continual buzzing in our ears! One good side of this extreme weather is that many collectors, while sheltering indoors, are getting their stamps out from the summer hibernation. With a lot of new material coming in, we will be happy to fill up any gaps you may have. Sections of note in this sale, as you may note from the photographs, are Obock, Somali Coast, Tangier, Tunisia, Zanzibar, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, St Pierre et Miquelon and Senegambia & Niger. I notice a good many of the older lots in italics still around at quite heavily reduced prices, which may be worth a perusal. Meantime best wishes to all our collectors both home and abroad and thanks for your continued good custom.   Terry Garcia
