Well done Sam for your coordination efforts and to all those who made a pen or two or three ........... good to see the idea still going strong after all these years. Thanks also to those who have donated kits and/or blanks too.

I had a request from a US serviceman who was in Afghanistan with our troops, some of his mates received a pen and he asked was it possible to get one. I have made a sierra out of the Mango from Chris aka Mapleman and have sent it in the mail today. Alas I forgot to take a picture. I will see if he posts it on Facebook
