Righty-ho people

We are going to do a scrapbook type album with all our xmas pics to show her how much this has been appreciated.

What I will require...

1 or 2 photos of each receivers kiddies opening their presents on xmas day - either by email or post.

A small short "thankyou" note from your kiddies so I can embellish the page with your photo.

Can you all email me on [email protected]

For those givers and receivers who wish to help in another way - please email St George xxxx

before i forget jarm. i read about your hubby being discharged from forces and you saying you would lose house. just wanted to let you know that most towns in uk now have housing schemes for ex army personnel. cant remember name of the scheme but if you ask at the barracks before you leave they should be able to tell you. didnt want to think of you and your lo's being homeless over xmas xxx

Good point - have you been in touch with SSAFA, JARM? Look here

Not sure they'd be able to do much - but they might. Worth a look.

  1. Eligiblity for help
SSAFA Forces Help can offer assistance to Service and ex-Serving men, women and their families in need. One day's paid Service is all that is needed to be eligible for this assistance. Please contact your local branch, who will see how best to help you.

sorry to hear of this jarm

Miaou · 29/11/2006 11:21

If you are going to do it scrapbook-stylee (she says, knowing nothing about scrapbooking), would you like some little embellishments sending to you to add in?

Can you tell this is not my forte?

JARM · 29/11/2006 11:22
