This list is published on the Stamp Boards discussion website and Ian Billings has confirmed on that site that these are the details sent by Royal Mail in recent weeks. Ian now also gives the details on his Norvic Philatelics site. Most of the subjects are trivial and inane but I suppose it’s all a matter of taste.
