A question about : RAF Waddington?

This is a really really long shot!
I've been up to RAF Waddington for the weekend to see my sons Godfather. Unfortunately on Saturday my son left his scruffy looking yellow (grey) teddy bear in the park (The one nearest the front gate). When we realised it was there we went back but it had gone. I have been round and round the camp looking for Owen (The teddy) but couldn't find it. I think one of the children who were playing in the park may have taken it home and then it been slung in the bin.

A question about : Living in BFG? German bank accounts.

Hi all!

I'm trying to write a researched article for you all about German bank accounts. For now I'll post what I have and edit/repost more info as it comes to me. Of course, feel free to add your own wisdom!

Kurz und gut: don't expect what's free in the UK to be free in Germany! Germans generally pay for their banking. Monthly fees and even additional charges for some transactions seems to be the norm at most banks.

A question about : Why move the military discount threads??

I don't think that the reference threads to military discounts should have been moved from this particular forum.

They all referred to discounts which were particular to military personnel and this forum is the 'UK Armed Forces MoneySaving' forum particular to military personnel.

Moving them to some other forum will mean they will become ‘lost’ to the very people they specifically apply to.

Anyone else agree?

A question about : Any advice on household bills while on op`s( discounts and stuff?)

While most bills now are worked out as a monthly average does anyone know if any of the bills can be made less of a burden as I`m a single person in my own house and now we have to pay food and accommodation from the word go when you go away,
Cheers

Thanks & I hope this ok to ask and the right place to post this ??

A question about : Internet savers

A question about : Are There Any Free Sites Where We Can Write Or Msg People In The Armed Forces?

Hi,
As the title says it, I was just wondering if there were any sites were you can wite to people in the armed forces. I think It would be nice to have a penpal or someone you can message now and then and kind of support them when they are far away from home.
I know of some sites but they are not great.
Thanks
