Rather strange

Post by ysbrydtawel »

Delivered a small parcel the other day to a holiday park. On the back of the parcel (the opposite side to that on which the address was written), was written: 'Fetch the chainsaw'.

I've been trying to think of a logical, plausible possible explanation for this ever since :hmmmm
We have a perfect record in aviation: we never left one up there.

I had a signed for addressed to "Piss Flaps", no answer and so returned to callers office. Wad told it would be interesting to see her ID for that name - No ID, no parcel :Very Happy

reminds me of my daughters sort of humour

if she gets a phone call from an unknown number she answers 'It's done but there's blood everywhere'

funnily enough she doesn't get that many calls from unknown numbers now lol

I delivered a parcel which had printed on the front 'adult toys.com' and on the back it said 'all returns must be washed".
Lady came to the door and I just could not say anything.
Also another packet which was from America, and on the customs label it said 'adult baby wear'. He's a baby, he's a baby!
Plenty more like that.
And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed-if all records told the same tale-then the lie passed into history and became truth. 'Who controls the past' ran the Party slogan, 'controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.'"
