The British Corner Shop is the online British supermarket with BFPO and worldwide delivery. Ideal for British Expats, Forces and Brits living and working abroad who can't get hold of their favourite British food locally.
British Corner Shop also caters to a large UK market with over 8,000 branded food and grocery items, many of which have been replaced in the big multiples with supermarket own brands, and have become more difficult to find. Take a look via the link here or simply click on the banner below.
The excellent Forcespenpals.co.uk have dropped us a line and we are glad to give them a plug.
Forces Penpals is the top military dating, penpals and social networking website for the UK armed forces. Differing from most mainstream online dating websites, Forcespenpals.co.uk is a unique social networking site for members of the UK armed forces, friends, family or just people who want to talk to, meet up with or show their support for the military.
In addition the site has now become the premier dating site for members of the armed forces and people with similar interests and outlook on life. Take a look at their website here, or simply click on the banner below.
A reminder that Moonpig Cards deliver to BFPO addresses. Their range of Valentines cards has been added to their site; and there is a massive variety of cards and prices. I particularly like to personalise the cards - you can do pretty much anything on their website and it is very easy to use. To visit Moonpig you can simply click on the link here or the banner below:
By way of BFPO delivery instructions, their website provided the following information:
'If you wish to send a card to someone stationed with the British Forces in an overseas destination, you can do so using the BFPO format. When entering the postal address into the site, select 'BFPO' from the drop-down country box and fill in the relevant fields that appear (you can then continue to order as normal). The card will be delivered to the British Forces Post Office in the UK, who then despatch the card to the correct destination on your behalf. Bear in mind that if you select the country, such as 'Iraq' instead of BFPO your card will be despatched to that countries individual postal system and may not arrive with the intended recipient.'
If you haven't yet done so, please do have a look at the excellent Harry Lamin Letters Blog
Private Harry Lamin served in the 9th Battalion York & Lancaster Regiment during the First World War. His letters, which were sent home to his worried family as he fought on the Western Front, have been turned into a blog by his grandson, IT teacher Bill Lamin.
The bulletins have been published in real time because he wanted to recreate the tension felt by families waiting to hear if their loved one had survived or died in battle. The blog has received a lot of excellent media coverage, including this piece in the Daily Mail here.
