Bee Gee stamps issued on February 29

Tomorrow marks Leap Year - and the Post Office is celebrating by issuing stamps commemorating the life of Bee Gee Maurice Gibb.

It's only the second time the organisation has issued a first day cover on February 29, and marks the life of the Manx musician.

The stamps will raise awareness for the Nordoff Robbins charity which uses music therapy to help those affected by life-limiting illness, isolation or disability.

Maurice Gibb died in 2003 but his son Adam says his dad would be delighted with the collection.
