LETTERS – Lovely Christmas stamps

One of this December’s pleasures has been looking at the 2023 Christmas stamps.
They have lots of lovely stars in their skies, such as cannot always be seen nowadays past the light pollution in between.
On the second-class stamp I cannot really tell if the redness of the angel’s wings is the straight red colour of them, or a reflected light.
Whichever, I like the idea of angels having coloured wings.
In Pinchbeck Church there is a darling little window which shows an angel.
The wings of the angel are made up of three colours.
I am fairly sure it’s Pinchbeck Church, not somewhere else.
I wonder if it was up there when one of my great-grannies was married there around about 1880 or if it has been put there since then.
