You'd think by some comments the person had deposited a whole 500g walnut whip straight into a Jiffy Bag, sealed it and chucked it in the letterbox and the postie had found bits of stained sweetcorn rolling around in the bottom of his pouch! :shock:
Ahhh cr@p...

When I sent my sample I sent a massive log. I was just supposed to send a smear? balls!

My colleague once had someone put a bag of dog poo in the postbox. Needless to say the letters in the box weren't collected that day and the incident reported to management. Makes you wonder how sick some folks really are.
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

I've had this, the smell hit me as soon as I opened the box. I just closed it without touching anything and and reported it when I got back.
