I came across an interesting blog today run by Kalash Oda - he posted his site on my Cyprus Stamps & Covers facebook page.
Check out the Return to Sender Covers and more..... blogspot site.
Currently Kalash is looking for stamps, sheets first day covers and covers for the 2012 London Olympic Games so if you can help him out, he's willing to do exchanges.

Lighthouse stamps from Cyprus win Best Issue of 2011 poll
I had a very nice email this morning from Carlos who runs his own blogspot website dedicated to lighthouses on stamps.
He has purchased some of our issues last year for himself and his fellow stamp collectors so Cyprus Lighthouse Stamps have travelled some distance in 2011.
Today he tells me he ran a poll on his website and the Cyprus stamps issue was voted the Best Issue of 2011. Very nice to hear and it's good of him to keep me in the loop.
Take a look at New Stamps with Lighthouses blogspot site. If you're a fellow lighthouse stamp collector you may want to join him.

"This is Carlos, the lighthouse stamp collector from Argentina. The 3 lighthouse booklets bought in last December arrived to their respective adress in perfect condition. Thank you very much.
We did a poll about all the 2011 lighthouse issues and Cyprus was honored as the best Lighthouse issue for the year 2011. So, congratulation to Cyprus Post. Sorry, no award or ceremony for the moment."
