MOTHER sent a xmas parcel to Dr Lauren, not the main presents, just some stocking fillers for everyone.
It didn't arrive.
Much to our shock and surprise, as the Royal Mail is usually so good.
Upon enquiring after Xmas, MOTHER was given the parcel back.
With a stern warning from the Post Office and an official letter, listing items that are illegal to post!
Now, the illegal item was a pack of lighters for The Gorgeous Son.
With naked women on.
Go figure.
He doesn't smoke, but anyway.....
MOTHER lives in a tiny village up in Scotland.
There must be millions of parcels in the system at Xmas time.
If a flipping lighter can cause such a fuss...can you imagine!
I feel very safe!
There are many items you can't post, most of which are pretty obvious, but also prohibited are batteries, anything made in foreign prisons (?) I guess that would include Zippo lighters. Dry ice, nail varnish remover....matches, and oddly, any lottery tickets except UK ones.
Also, hair dye and oven cleaner.
And porn. So MOTHER was illegal on 2 counts.
Well, now we know .
Hee hee
