I don't think posts on The Lighter Side count.

I've asked for a laminating machine, which one of my sons is getting for me.  I'm going to laminate all the certificates I have.

Noticed after this that no-ones number of posts is increasing.   


Modified - Sorry Liz, just saw your comment about Lighter Side - You're correct of course.  I hadn't posted on anything else.

Brilliant idea  :o   BUT I have 100s [it seems] of certificates [they fill a lever arch file] - could prove costly?   

Would laminating preserve the handwriting and stop the ink fading?
