Are you looking for a new hobby? The Winter months are looming – what to do? Why not come along to the Lanarkshire Philatelic Society – this grand name can be interpreted as ‘The Stamp Club’. Stamps of all countries; of sports; of nature etc are collected by enthusiastic members – also postmarks, Postcards etc – are at the heart of this hobby.
They told us, “Why not come along and meet other interested folk? You will be made most welcome – and you can enjoy a chat over a cup of tea/coffee!
