    My son is in the navy & has just gone on his 1st deployment. I'm sure he would love to receive messages from penpals - could you please tell me how he would subscribe to this ....

    It's his 21st in 3 weeks and i'm gutted that he will be away, it would be lovely for him to get mail from someone other than his mum !

    How about asking for penpals on my *NEW* yahoo group. we have 12 members waiting to write to someone! Go here http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/Forcespenpals/
    to find out more. :T

    I received a reply to my e-bluey today from someone who's name wasn't on the original list.
    It sounds like the letters are being passed around.

    Unfortunately I have just found out that I am not going out to Kandahar as I have recently had surgery and been downgraded for 3 months.

    However I speak with our guys out in Afghanistan every day and I will ask the Boss if he is happy for some of the lads to have their email addresses put on here so you can email or ebluey out to them.

    Keep it up as our guys have been out there 10 days now and they already feel they have done a month because the time drags for them, but as far as i am aware they have good internet access
