Ah bless ..
It is about time parcels were free to send into theatre ..
You can write to fhm.. top gear mags they always send out loads of magazines to our forces ...
Also try the sun for asking for penfriends etc they are always happy to help and they usually send some girlies over ..
The best way to send a parcel is to use a shoe box ...The boys need magazines .. roll on deodrants . .shower gel .. soap .. toothpaste . .toothbrush .. socks ... chewing gum ..
As for coke i would say no as it is compressed ...
Good luck

I've got a friend who is English, and his nephew is in Afghanistan. I am an American, and need to send items through my friend, so he can send them to his nephew. I am not sure if he doesn't trust me with his nephew's address there, or if it is private, as he has said to me, and not allowed to be given out. My British friend, and I have known each other for over 6 years. He knows me. So, for the British soldiers, his nephew, and his platoon, I cannot send perishable items, but things like sunglasses, clothes, letters and pictures. I don't know if the British people are sending packages to American soldiers, except that my English friend is not. However, he did send financial support to the victims of Katrina, in Louisiana.

Yup heard this rececently. I think some MPs, retired brass hats and the British Legion said it was wrong for Royal Mail to charge to send a parcel/package to a squaddie or other service person.

i'm undecided you comprehend how imperialism works. the objective of creating empires became to get administration of as lots territory, and its components, as a threat. Canada had components that have been useful to the British. i'm undecided what you mean via "a tricolor of valid languages," yet North united states of america does in actuality have 3 important languages. English and French are the two valid languages of Canada. Spanish is the valid language of Mexico and all of needed united states of america different than Belize, which has the two English and Spanish as valid languages. the country does not have a criminal valid language, yet English is the main effective language of government and maximum commerce interior the united statesA.

It makes a change rather than our lads getting a slating....A really nice thought for all the lads out there.....Please don't forget the top brass as they are running short of Earl Grey Tea. My son sent a request home for his commander and I sent some over......He then wrote a lovely letter explaining this image of the commanding officers standing in a bombed building with their cups of tea.....lol
