The request is for Lash so they will be well recieved.

Hope that helps

Thanks; I've got a few old Streetfighters that'll be on their way in the next week or so, and probably the odd Bike, etc

We're all, delighted, only too delighted to help you and the guys out!!

Proud of you all!!

We sent 5 packages on the 30th! I'll be interested to know when the lads get them!

HA!!

Just received a thank you note from Major Andy, through the post, thanking us for the Mags! The lads got them on 06/10!! Preee-tee good going I'd say!!

Glad to help chaps - our pleasure!!!

Just back from the PO knackered.
Thought I packed 2 packs at just under 2kg each.
1 over 7kg and the other over 6 1/2kg

Kitchen scales now in bin.
Getting more brown paper this afternoon (and new scales) to repack into 7 or 8 lots

Our mags going in the post today

[Urrell]

13 packs sent - Customs declarations took the most time to fill in

Old car mags any good?
I saved a whole bing of them from the skip (seemed a shame) but will never get around to reading them. As well as the bike mags of course!

As an aside, there's a shoebox collection at Edinburgh Harley Davidson. Drop filled boxes there before 31st October. Others may well be doing the same..?
No pressurised cans, no chocolate, or anything else that melts (or so I'm told). Plastic wee bottles of Irn Bru popular with the Scots guys, as are packet soup, pasta in a mug and stuff like that.

Can I have my copy of the Quin mailed directly to Arghanistan?

HELP

Finally getting around to packing up some of the mags I bought off ebay & cadged off Mort when Hamish went into hospital after his accident last November.

Twelve parcels packed so far, full of BSH and AWOLs, with at least twice as many more to do.

Questions for anyone who's already sent some.....

Is up to 2kg still free? What, apart from the BFPO address, needs to go on the packages? Return address? Customs declaration? Airmail sticker?

I send bloody millions of parcels through the PO for my ebay business, but these are the first for a BFPO address for me.

there's more where they came from Baff - get your backside into gear and I'll send you another shipment
