    Please look at the original post .The original poster Emma_b started this thread in 2006 , 6 years ago so its unlikely the poster still has a current list or even checks her mail box. I am not sure where you would get an up to date list now , but the sun newspaper used to provide them through the Dear Dierdre page so it may be worth contacting them.
    Many thanks to the wonderful staff at Birmingham Childrens Hospital caring for my tiny and very poorly grandson who was born at 29 weeks. Thanks to them he is getting a little stronger every day.:A:A:A
  • If anybody finds a way to email specific people then I'd love to do this too :)

    May I please be included? I'd love to write to them xx

    EDIT

    I'm so slow.. I've clicked on the MOD BFPO link and I can see the website, but I'm really confused as to how I sign up or find emails/addresses to send letter to, could someone simplify this for me, please? So sorry about this

    Hi all, I've joined the site but obviously I've no addresses to send to the forces. I would love the opportunity to write to them though I understand that the list of people from Emma_b is outdated (and most probably aren't even in the forces anymore). If anyone knows of any people who would like to receive a letter I'd appreciate if they could let me know! Thanks :)
