No More Free Packages to Iraq

Post by Smiler.wales »

Bloody Typical

Last night was informed in writing that as of April 4th or 8th (cant remember which)your family/friends/blow up dolls can no longer send packages to serving soldiers in Iraq free of charge. 2 Kg packages can still be sent at a charge of £7.23

Apparently their reasoning is

a) No other theatres ie Bosnia etc recieve this service

b) There is now a strong enough structure in place where by Soldiers can by "comfort items"


Tschhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
