    Sticker Day is a day to celebrate all things stickers, from the custom made to the everyday label. Every sticker has a story. They can be used for decoration or information depending on the situation. They can come in many different shapes, sizes and colours and can be used on a variety of things for example lunch boxes, in paper planners, lockers or notebooks - maybe on a VW bus.

    European merchants in the 1880’s were some of the first to stick labels to their products, in an effort to promote their goods and wares to passers by. Using gum paste to get the labels to adhere and stick: hence “stickers.” By the 1900’s a sticker-specific paste had been developed and was widely used, most notably on stamps, which dried and then would re-apply when moistened.

    I do like a sticker - although these days I am mostly sticking Peppa Pig stickers in comics to keep my granddaughter amused.

    Mine went through 2 mots by covering holes with stickers. Now they don’t matter as it’s mot exempt!

    You crash one of these things enough to move that part of the front, it’s pretty much game over for your legs, anyway. Even if it isn’t rusty!

    Very true, but at least my insurance will cover me as my bus is deemed to be in a roadworthy condition.

    So is mine, if I put tape on it, so that there is no jagged edges.
