    Miss out on the cheese? Don't worry. An Post is providing every one with a free 55 cent stamp*


    * must buy 25 to qualify.

    Surprised somebody important hasn't announced it. Maybe the IMF will announce it tomorrow.

    This is the kind of innovative idea that will restart the tiger's engines.

    I sense the beginnings of a barter economy. How much cheese is a stamp worth?

    Probably a reply from the cuckoo's nest saying they're picking you up soon.

    They don't mention that, but you sound like you know the truth.

    When I was young the jape of the season was to ask someone if they wanted a free stamp. And if they said yes then you'd stamp on their foot.


    Of course you could not do it now, health and safety and all that. And slowly our culture dies a death by a thousand cuts

    You also forgot to mention that you have to buy a booklet of 26 stamps to get a free one.
