Didn’t think I’d be doing this after such a relatively short time in the country, I used to see other vols getting parcels from home with a motley content of basic and treat items and think that we’d be able to manage on what we could afford to buy locally and what was available, and if we had to do without we’d do without. However after nearly three months here I’ve given in. We are trying to live on wages + top up which is doable at a very basic level but if anyone can get round to sending one or two of the items in the list at some time in the next two years we’d be very grateful. (Roger and Fred, this doesn’t apply to you, you’ve already done more than enough – xx).
Chocolate (in any form)
Roll-on or solid deodorant
Dried yeast
Shampoo
Conditioner
Big tub of E45 cream
Chocolate
Stock cubes
Sodium Bicarbonate
Baking powder
Baked beans
Small magnifying mirror( eyebrows, yes I’m still vain)
Herbs/Curry spices
Pot noodles (or similar)
A decent corkscrew (we’re assuming wine will come back, at the moment it’s gone the way of the beer!)
Tea towel
Chocolate
On the other hand you could just donate to VSO (see sidebar). They are doing a wonderful job and are much more deserving.
