Question Postal visa application in UK

Probably being over cautious here, but better safe than sorry. Just about to post off applications for tourist visas for a family holiday (three adults, all at the same permanent address) - is it OK to send them all in the same envelope, enclose a single postal order to cover the three fees, and use a single envelope for the passports to be returned, or do they expect three completely separate applications? Common sense says the former, but I realise that they could be processed separately.

Any advice gratefully received.

Multiple passports in one envelope are ok, I got ours back yesterday,
Include with your three application forms two photos for each person, mine were stapled to the top right hand corner of the relevant page.
A stamped self addressed special delivery envelope.
Enclose £93 pounds worth of postal orders made payable to Indian High Commision, thats £30 each visa plus an extra £1 each for postal applications.
write yor name & address on the outward leg, they'll stamp the return one, Allow into the second week to receive back.
Happy Travelling
