A friend of mines son is on the supply convoys up to the forward lines out in Afghanistan.
On the 22nd Nov for the Sheff Utd game (and possibly Southampton game on the 29th) we are going to have a couple of boxes on the doors of the Cons & Lib club, and anybody who would like to bring along any off the following.
We are going to do a parcel which will be from us all, just as a small gesture to the troops. My mates son will then distribute what we give to the lads on the forward lines as a thank you and Happy Xmas from us all Cheers

Single sachets of Ovaltine/horlicks/cappuccino/cup-a-soups etc
Hand/face cream
Wet wipes
Roll on deodorants
Victory v/ fishermens friends etc (getting cold there now)
Boiled sweets
Pot noodles
magazines like Viz/Loaded/Nuts etc

Any donation greatfully received...thanks

    I only ask as I know I'll forget to bring any of the items with me. At least with money you can go and get whatever you feel he needs...

    Cheers Medders, must admit I didn't think of money, would be easier for a lot of people but it also brings security issues etc

    Think you'd be able to send out a bigger package ultimately too... Don't get me wrong, it's a great idea but who would bring sachets of ovaltine to football... oh hang on, where's henners?!
