When I was 6 or 7 my brother who was 8 or 9 started collecting stamps and so I wanted to. He got a stamp album for me and an envelope of used stamps and in the album was a diagram of how to fix the stamps with a little sticky paper hinge and in the demo on the back of the stamp in the illustration was printed 'Reverse side of stamp'. So I carefully wrote on the back of each stamp this logo thinking that is what you had to do. It took me ages and all I got from it was a lot of humiliation.
