Confused!

I was pleasantly surprised to receive 3 official cards in the post this morning, as I had already received more cards than I had sent. I am really not sure how this works - why I should have a surplus, when other people haven't even received their quota yet. Have I been lucky in the people, which have downloaded my address. Not that I am complaining, it is lovely to have recieved so many cards. Off to the post office today to send off another 5 cards.

Private trade: Limoges


Limoges is famous for its porcelain. Thank you for the card Sandy87.

Main railway station, Helsinki


According to faith86, under the clock above the main doors is a popular meeting point. Very impressive building, thank you.

I really like statues, it is amazing how some structures do not seem to date, this was built almost 50 years ago, yet still appears relevant. Thank you Gredou, I do hope to return to Brussels, I lived there for a short period of time as a child.
