Great video Smokey! I'm excited when I see notification of your new releases. If you want the traditional British tea experience, you should definitely check out Betty's in York.

[@SnailmailwithSmokey]

Thanks so much for the lovely comment and for the suggestion about Betty's. I hope to be able to visit there one day. Have a great weekend!

@@schuey089 Visiting the UK would be a dream come true. Thanks for the suggestions! Have a wonderful weekend!

a long but enjoyable episode .... been a while :) I personally enjoy a variety of stamps on my cards received, but if it is coming from an unknown person it is always better to know what the person has to say , about their life and what is on the postcard.

[@SnailmailwithSmokey]

Thank you for the well thought out answer about stamps on postcards and if you are looking for a long episode just wait for the next one.😀Have a great day!

So many great places to visit here in the UK. I can recommend Whitby, the home of Dracula, which also has some great Fish & Chips restaurants 😋.

[@SnailmailwithSmokey]

@@zubazub66 Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely look that up.

[@zubazub66]

It's pirate weekend this week in Whitby and there is also a Goth weekend as well which has some amazing sights.

[@SnailmailwithSmokey]

@@zubazub66 sounds very interesting. Thanks again!

Hello Smokey! Thanks for the great video and for sharing all the nice postcards, mail and stamps! I really liked the frog postcard from Belarus, the cute slug 😂, and the Dungeons and Dragons postcard and stamp from Jilly. It is indeed difficult to fit in various stamps on a standard size postcard and find space to write and decorate, so if someone doesn't mention that they collect stamps, these days I only use one stamp with the international rate, but if the person likes stamps, I try to fit in a few different stamps to make up the rate. Oh, you MUST make a dedicated decision to visit the UK and tour the country!!!! Doesn't your church possibly have an exchange possibility with a church in the UK, and you can go there for a period to preach at that church and that church's minister comes to preach at your church? Just wondering. That would be a wonderful experience!

[@SnailmailwithSmokey]

Hi Charnie! Thanks for watching and commenting as always! YES, A visit to the UK is a most for me. As far as your suggestion about a church exchange, our church is non-denominational, so we are not affiliated with a group of churches. I am sure there are some non-denominational churches in the UK and if any of them would like me to come preach for them I can be at the airport in 2 hours..lol 😃 Have a wonderful weekend!

[@GreatStampAdventure]

@@SnailmailwithSmokey 🙂I am sure you will get there at some time in the future or maybe near future? 🙂

[@SnailmailwithSmokey]

@@GreatStampAdventure Thanks Charnie!

[@ReneLewis64]

In answer to your question about stamps, I buy both. If the profile says they love stamps, then I add a bunch of smaller denomination stamps. But if they don't make a preference then I will add the international stamp.

[@SnailmailwithSmokey]

@@ReneLewis64 Hi Rene! Thanks so much for answering my question about the stamps. The new lower value US stamps are very nice. I hope your school year is off to a great start. Enjoy your weekend!
