    I know I cant link my blog here (It discusses postals,royal mail etc), but I wanted to pop up a reminder that the prices of stamps may be due to rise next month.

    Its been speculated in the media - I hope im wrong and things will stay the same, however I sent a message to Royal Mail on twitter asking if they had a press release on the new prices - they said they would let us know the updated prices as they are published.

    Its suggested that a book of second class stamps could cost approx £2.00 extra (Estimated prices are 55p a second class stamp, with first class up to 75p each!) :( I bought a few extra 2nd class books just incase.
    Wishing you all good luck!
