On 14 November 2013 I received this very nice cover from Ascension Island, which was sent with the help of the Philatelic Bureau there, thank you! It was posted in Georgetown on 7 November 2013.
The attached stamps are part of the set “Yellow Canary” (Serinus flaviventris), which was issued on 11 October 2010.

On January 29 I received this registered cover from Ascension Island. It was posted in Georgetown on January 18, 2013.
The attached stamps are part of the Christmas set, which was issued on November 15, 2012. The set commemorates the novella A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens (1812-1870).
Attached on the back of the cover there is the GLS sticker, which shows the date “28.01.2013”. I suppose this letter is one of a few, which are delivered by GLS in Austria.
