Stamp on postcard (maxicard)...

It's been a while since I did post here. I have not been well, but now I'm better. I have some heart trouble and kidney failure, so now you know. As this blog is about postcard I'll switch to that.

The first card show a phenomen from northern Norway called midnight sun, I'ts from the summertime when the sun is shining all day and night. I have not experienced this myself, but I have seen the opposite "phenomen" - darkness all day and night, which is in the wintertime of course.

The second card is from the WC of ski in Oslo in 1982. The picture is "slightly" older I think. I'm looking forward to 2011 when Oslo is host again. I don't ski myself, so I shall not participate (!)

Canadian native art 2...

The two postcard I will show today is part 2 of the native art from Canadian artists – thanks to JMB – and eagles are the motives. Eagles are great animals, which USA shows with the symbol «American Eagle». The eagle is also much liked in Canada and Norway, but sad enough this bird is becoming fewer and fewer in the nature.

These postcards are fresh from the postoffice yesterday. Thanks "JMB" for these lovely cards you did sent me. Native art is new to me so now I have to make a new collector field. There is more to come so look out on this blog.

Movieposters on postcard...

It's been a while since I have blogged, so its time to do it. First of all I will congratulate a friend of mine (and many bloggers around the globe!) "JMB" from Canada, with 1 year of blogging. It's always interesting to read the blog, so I hope you will blog many years to come.

This post is my 40th so I have a little jubilee too....!!, and this is my first post on my new laptop, which is an Acer with 2 gb memory and 250 gb harddisk.

Todays postcards shows two differents movies. The first one Blues Brothers is full of great music mostly blues and great humour too, so if you like music and comedy I can recomend this movie. The second card is another type of movie. I haven't seen it myself so I had to go Wikipedia for help(!): " The film stars Harry Dean Stanton as Travis, an amnesiac who has been lost for four years and is taken in by his brother (played by Dean Stockwell). He later tries to put his life back together and understand what happened between him, his wife Jane (Nastassja Kinski), and his son Hunter (Hunter Carson)."

A summervacation to remember....

I’m still in England – with my postcards ! This time I’m in a coastal city called Hastings, which I had the pleasure to visit some years ago. We were 4 adults and 2 children who rented a house (!) and stayed here for 2 weeks. The house was on a hill above Hastings so we had a beautiful view of the city and the ocean. When we was tired of staying in the beautiful garden by our own swimmingpool and a fishpond (!) we did go down to the city and visited a pub with the name “Ye olde pump house”, and yes it was old. The pub was in the old part of the city, with very narrow streets with lots of antiqueshops and booksellers – and postcardshops which I did buy these postcards. One of the holidays I will remember as one of the best.

Happy New Year, at last....

Ill start the new year with two old postcards from England, which I dont know anything about. If there is anybody that can tell me about the postcards, please do.
Anyhow have a happy new year everybody.
