Simomatra now in Charge
Thank you Sam for taking this on.
Thanks to all who support Pens for the Troops, from now on please send all pens to Sam, if you have a pen or two or more, PM Sam for his address.
Thanks to all who have sent pens for me to pass on, should any come my way I will pass them on to Sam. It has been an honour and priviledge to pass on your gifts to fellow country men(and women) serving in overseas countries. AmosGood, better, best, never let it rest;

Thank you Amos! it has been heartwarming to read some the responses you've posted.
Welcome Sam!
To kick this off (the handing over the role, that is), I have some timber I'd like to donate to those who make pens for the troops.
cheers

Amos, thank you for all the hard work you have done on this great project since it inception, you are going to be a hard act to follow. I hope I can get at least a quarter of the work done that you have done. Well done mate I know the troops have enjoyed. If I can send you a greenie it is on the way
Well ladies and gentlemen, Amos tells me donations to this great project have been a little on the slow side of late so lets get back in there with the Aussie spirit and start donating some pens.
Many thanks Wendy for your off of timber for the project I also have blanks and can get blanks for those wanting blanks just send PM me for email address and we will go from there.
For the not pen makers we are looking for pen kits, pen blanks or we will even accept money that can be used to purchase kits.
Any of you pen kit sellers out there please feel free to donate.
All offers of any kind will be posted here.
