yes but what has really really annoyed me is that they said ALL the money raised would be for the injured troops that is why I bought them

I do not think anyone will win.
I had a form through the post from Blackpool trading standards with copies of the raffle tickets I had bought from the show asking why I had bought the tickets and where did I think the money was going to

Yes, and I heard diddly squat, so I guess I never won anything.
Don't tell me you won something????!!!!!

Hi Quoy,

Long time, no see!! Hope you are well.

As for the army records, that seems like one heck of a long waiting time. I wonder if it could be along the same lines as the hold-ups at GRO, ie when they get inundated due to the recent WDYTY programmes.
Anyway, at least you've made a start!

All the best,
K
