[BITE] British Isles Traveling Envelope

I had one when I was younger, but traded it in for a word processor, but now bitterly regret that. It’s a good idea to look at repair shops though, thank you.
Btw, I haven’t noticed a problem with your handwriting :relieved:

A bumper BITE update from me today:

  • BITE 90 - British Museums reached me from @Natea .
  • BITE 96 - Megabyte 2.0 reached me from @jobloggs .

I will make my swaps this evening / tomorrow (a grand way to spend part of a wet and windy bank holiday weekend!) and get them on the move with Saturday’s post to @JamCrackers and @EmmaG respectively.

:hibiscus: UPDATE :hibiscus:

Happy April to everyone!!! What did the stamp say to the envelope? Stick with me and we’ll go places. (lazy man’s prank :slight_smile: )

Lots of BITES in flight and lots more with only one person needed to fill the group. I’ve added a couple of new options, one as a celebration of the Royal Mail as this month marks 100 years of commemorative stamps, and another for all things vintage, as suggested by @EmmaEirene

If everyone is amenable, once a couple more of the BITEs are in flight I’m happy to start up another Winner Takes All

And now… Drum Roll :drum:

The two winners of the grab bags for March. Everyone who has taken part in a BITE over March, even the ones still in flight currently, are eligible. There are 11 people in the draw, names and numbers are in the pinned post.

@postbot roll 2d11

Congratulations to @Maddymail and @claireandivy :smiley: I’ll have your envelopes in the post tomorrow!!

Well done @Maddymail and @claireandivy :hugs: And thanks for the kind offer @Natea :blush:

Please can i join group 103? (Sorry I’m not a fan of vintage cards so don’t have any to join that group, but it’s a great idea!)

Would be great to see a new Winner Takes All - so many groups close to being full!

There are definitely many Postcrossers who love vintage cards and don’t like the modern touristy ones i like! :heart: Wouldn’t it be boring if we were all the same! :joy:

the whole beauty of postcrossing is how varied everyone’s taste is. There are bound to be people with cards to swap
