Lamb with mint sauce......that's the only option for me!
It would be lamb for me, Gammon is ok but I find it too salty.
My wife has just returned with loads of first day covers bought at a very cheap price. Seaham car-boot sale is a very large venue. Recommended if you are in the area. #carbootsale #seaham www.nobles-promotions.co.uk/page26.html
Today's stamps are more for my "Trains of the World" collection this time from Guyana 1987. Ive also got a lot of sorting to do, my wife has just returned from the local car-boot sale with loads of FDC's.

Stamp(s) of the day - The latest addition to my trains/railways of the world collection. These are from Liberia, released in 2000. #stampoftheday #stampcollecting #philately #stamps #postage
Its the "Whernside"! - saw this one in Seaham on 17th December 2025.
Great photograph....and just peaking out in the background is a class 43 - my favourite train - many happy memories.
DR75505 passing through Seaham station this morning. In hindsight I should have been on platform 2 rather than 1 to get a better photograph.

I don't often get to see freight as they get cancelled, don't run to time or I'm working when they pass through my favourite location, last weekend though I was in luck and managed to get a couple of photographs of the 66601. Hopefully I'll get similar luck this weekend. #trains #trainspotting
I finally got one - A Penny Black. So pleased I'm now able to add it to my collection. I could not justify paying the average cost for one and whilst this one is not in the greatest condition, I only paid £9.54 - very happy! #stampoftheday #stampcollecting #philately #stamps #postage
