    Default Merchant Navy Day Lapel Badge

    A few years ago I had a badge company make up 200 x 25mm MN Day lapel badges for me, which I sold for 50p each with the proceeds being put towards a one of the Merchant Navy projects I was raising money for at the time. I have just come across the last 50 or so of these badges.

    If anyone is interested I will give these last ones away FREE (Maximum of 2 per person) on a first come first served basis. All you need to do is send me a stamped self addressed envelope and I will post back.

    Attached is a photo of the lapel badge against a one pound coin to show size comparrison (no you don't get the pound coin as well)

    JUST IN FROM WORK AND TO LATE FOR TODAYS POST, WILL DO TOMMOROW.

    Hope for two, myself and dad. Will appreciate this.

    Also intersted in a Tregenna badge to give away on visits etc.

    Will look into it, all advice welcomed as usual. Earlier looked into and set up and numbers were off putting.

    MESSAGE FROM jOE TONIGHT, He is back from Spain, hopefully will ask for a proffessional view of my proposed song and help with lyrics etc "Over the Seas and Far Away".

    Regret missing out on your last book, and would appreciate two copies if reprinted etc. Personal health etc on the mend and hopefully back on the ball.

    Trevessa still bogged down with red tape and hope for a break through soon.

    Castleman,

    All the badges have not gone, I put you two aside as soon as I read your post. I don't reply to every single post to avoid a long thread, but anyone who has posted a request for them is noted and recorded.

    Posted today to:
