Christmas Parcel - contents?
A good mate of mine has just left for six months in the sandy, rocky place.
Clearly I need to send him a Christmas parcel to entertain and educate him during the long hours when the rest of us are partying.
So apart from a copy of G*y Times and a feather boa, what should I send him?

And perhaps a poster to adorn the inside of his tented accomodation...

AA,
You can't beat some English tea bags: you get given US sh*te out there. Not that your allowed to send booze but, if you did, a CAN of Gordon's G+T always goes down well out there.

Just think about what you couldn't do without over there..... The hottest chilli/curry sauce (just because it goes further) that money can buy, the odd christmas treat (choccy) and the most depraved "Johnny Vaughn" money can buy.
Don't forget to tailor the "Johnny" to the recievers tastes..... For instance Cavalry Officers prefer a "horse based publication", Loadies mostly like the "hairy" and Marines tend to enjoy anything. Easiest to buy for are FJ mates, they prefer either a photo of themselves or a mirror.

Reminds me of a parcel I never received in the FI. Aunt sent fruit cake, toothpaste odds and sods, flown crab air as far as poss, dropped in oggin abeam grey funnel line, picked up and after separation for various seaborne units placed in another dry wrapper for onward transmission.
Nearly reached me but someone realised Atlantic Conveyor was sunk and thoughtfully re-addressed back to blighty! It hung around a while to catch northbound bateau and was finally delivered via MOD etc to the front door about the time I reached Stanley by bemused Postie deciphering various addresses.
Memsahib knowing AC sunk but not my whereabouts thought the worst - personal effects – opened now ripe parcel. After peeling back the fourth layer the sight of mixed cake, toothpaste and seawater was enough to gash it – pity really Auntie made a fine cake!!
