He's 7, and is quite taken by stamps.
He's written several letters (I'll give you an example in a minute), and I wondered if there might be some MNers in foreign parts who might help him 
Here is one of his letters ( in very best joined-up writing
)
Dear Jamaica
If I writ you a letter, please will you send me one back, so I can see your stamps.
I am from England (Great Britan)
Good luck in the Olympics
Love from Allyouneed Junior.
There are similar letters for several countries, and his plan is to put them in an envelope with the country name on the outside, and several stamps.
Would anyone be able to send him a letter with a stamp on?
Thank you. He would be the happiest boy in the world!

Hi, I am in Bahrain if that is any help?
Have also liked - is that my postcard on the right there? You need to photo all the stamps and add the photos so that we can all see (small project, should only take you a couple of days or so
)

I've skim read the thread and haven't seen much mention of Spain. I'll be there trying to escape the rain in 3 weeks time, so PM me if you need one from there.
Hi OP, I have a pen friend in Sri Lanka, if you fancy some stamps next time I get a letter, then PM me. Great thread 
I love this thread! It's fantastic
dp has been rolls that when we have kids I'll be asking mn for pen pals for them :D I'm not abroad so can't help, though would send a postcard from brighton if he really wanted one 
I had a email style pen pal in australia fire a few years in my teens, I miss talking to him now, he even sent me an aussie fiver so I could have a cup of coffee on film when I eventually got over there!
Glad you liked the sweets!

Oh, I remember this thread 
If you're still interested I have a Turkish stamp, don't think I've seen that mentioned. It would be sent from Scotland though...PM me if you do
.
If you are still looking for letters from abroad (and haven't had one yet) I have family in the Falklands who I know would love to send your son a letter. PM if you would like me to contact them.
