PAD June is 'Grateful Month' 23.6.2022 - So Grateful that our Mum Rosie saved lots of love letters from our Dad Rip.
These were written by Rip to Rosie when he was at El Alamein during WW2 in 1943 before they were married, so lovely and sweet and beautiful.
We are fascinated by the stamp, it's Australian and cost 1d (One Penny) with the Queen Mother Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes-Lyon on it, the Queen Mother lived to be 101 and a half years old when she passed.

Photo a Day Challenge - 11.7.2019 - My (husband's) Handwriting, well not exactly but the letters he wrote... plus Aunty Cranky's Handwriting.
Then I just remembered this beautiful handwriting, postcards sent to me by my Great Aunt Nancy aka Cranky. How exciting it was to receive one of these back in 1957 to 1962, she did spend a lot of time overseas did my Aunty Cranky and in style too.
When Rip and Rosie were moving into a retirement place Rosie was going to throw these Postcards out but I managed to get to keep them, I found 320 postcards sent to myself and my four siblings during these five years of Cranky's travels which I scanned and put into a Blog back in 2013 which was archived by the National Library of Australia, you can see more if you like at
