POSSIBLE ACCOLADE FOR ANDY MURRAY !


A well merited accolade for ANDY MURRAY winning the Wimbledon Tennis Championship,  after a lapse of 77 years since Fred Perry became the last British winner in 1936, would be to mark the occasion with a special postage stamp !

Have we all forgotten that all British winners of Gold Medals at the London Olympics last year were honoured with a postage stamp of their achievement ?  Incidentally Andy Murray then also featured on a stamp as he won the Mens' Tennis Tournament ! 

Other countries have already featured great athletes on stamps.  In particular, Switzerland issued a stamp in 2007 in honour of ROGER FEDERER ! 

This could once again serve to encourage young sportsmen to emulate their stars.  The problem is "Who in the Government will give the instructions to make this "honour" possible" ?
