Good morning Ralph, my friend.
I just wanted to give you a friendly warning that if you attempted to float a scan like that in an Approvals offering the growling wrath (pronounced "Ggggrrrr") of our Illustrious SoR Approvals Moderator (Note: official title pending trademark) would fall upon you faster than my own last Book sold out.
Just Saying. 
Best Regards,

P.S. Celebrating your near-completion of a set from a country named after a PITA mother-in-law character on Bewitched with pre-Christmas High-Test Egg-Nog may be used as an excuse for unhygienic scanning practices on one occasion per year subject to Rule X2016.M12.A25.S

Hate to admit it, but you are right.. That scan (actually an iphone picture) was disgraceful! And go figure why it posted sideways, even after I rotated the original and it showed as facing the right way!
So I scanned a new page, per the Approval Book Standards I expect ALL to follow...and replaced the disgraceful one you noted.
lol

Hate to be pedantic (actually, I'm lying-it's part of my nature), but Samantha's mother was Endora, not Andorra. Methinks the eggnog (nasty stuff) has been playing foul with you.

"Hate to be pedantic..."
Darryl: Of course you don't! You're a teacher! It's hard-wired in your DNA (and hard-boiled into your training).
Plus, who doesn't love to take a shot at a Queen's MBA (aka Much Bigger As#$#% to most people) when they think they've caught one in a rare error.
Unfortunately, I knew what I was doing and was hoping to ensnare another member into making a comment on my condescending stupidity...But you, Ralph, and Nigel seem to be on to me, and your responses were too witty. Ah, the sadness...
Dave.
P.S. Ralph: Nice second scan. I doubt I have anything that rarified in THE HOARD but when I get to the "A's" I'll keep my eyes open for you.

More likely, it's the LAW teacher part that is pedantic. The history part tends to see things in a more fluid light. As for DNA, the pedantic side comes from my dad's side, and he was a welder. My uncles both were restauranteurs. Training - that was so long ago ...

When you wait one year to add one stamp, and you are now 4 from completion, it is worth celebrating.
