I collect fridge magnets from places abroad that I have visited. Hence the domain name. Between 2004 and March 2025, I have collected 203 magnets (183 cities/towns and 20 attractions) from 52 countries, all for pleasure. Since the lockdown in 2020, I have also included photographic reminiscence of my trips in the UK, though not always with fridge magnets!
