Thanks to troops in their thoughtful gesture, Amos

| | Amos,
If you flip over the coin, you'll find the answer to Studley's scorpion question.
The coin does come out, takes a bit of effort though
cheers and thanks

| | Hi Amos, I have to say I am totally blown away to think that with all our troops are going through they have time to thank us for something we did to make them feel they weren't frogotten. Please pass on my thanks if that is possible.
Cheers Mate

| | I received a shirt and medallion today
I'm absolutely blown away - I sent a small number of pens just to show that even though I don't think much of war or even our involvement in that conflict, that I was (and am) very appreciative and proud of those that do serve for this, our country. I did not expect something in return, I'm not sure I deserve it.
In any event thank you to those that sent it and to Amos for all his efforts in being the go between.
I'll just have to pull my finger out and finish the couple I've had a making for the past few weeks - I'll do my best to get them to you before the end of the month, Amos. So that they may be included in the ANZAC package
There was only one thing better then receiving the package - and that was the expression on my 11 yo son's dial when he worked out what it was. priceless. He's got a little growing to do before he fills out the shirt, though!

| | I collected my shirt and medallion from our Mail Centre today. I feel honoured to have been given them. Actually I got a tad emotional when I opened the parcel and realised what they were. As soon as I can, I will get more pens to you Amos.
Thanks so much.

| | Wow, what a day I have had! I had sitting at my front door when I got home a lovely shirt and medallion - which I changed into as I was off back into town - great fit and looks very snazzy. On the way had to call into the post office to pick up my pen swap parcel!!! One very lucky person today!!
Thanks to all concerned, a gesture not expected but VERY appreciated!!
