Postal Antics …

Well after recently receiving this from a member on here :

which funnily enough contained some nice Ti bolts , it kind of reminded me of some of the antics I have seen on the car forums

So, have you had anything sent to you from a fellow retrobiker that has been decorated nicely or had a (very) embarrassing return address etc ?

You can take this as a bit of a warning for anyone who buys stuff off me in future ;-) how embarrassing things will be will depend on how well I know you

The first package has already left but it is quite tame and ‘picturesque’ in comparison to some of the packaging / labeling ideas I have in mind …

I sold a few seatposts a while back and the lady behind the Post Office counter asked me if I was selling ladies sex toys.
Maybe it was the way I wrapped them.

 

[mikeekim89]

i have had some obscure descriptions on bank transfers from mates for various things over the years. its a long standing tradition that any bank transfer has to be written in such a way that it will disgust the cashier next time you are at the counter trying to alter your account in some way.

the best (if you can call it that) that landed in my account was done in two installments, one after the other and was something along the lines of.......

"you wouldn't take cash any cash when you left last night"

followed by

"you were simply incredible - thanks, love steve"


this was made worse by one simple factor, the teller in the bank was in my year group at school and was teased (as kids do) for his femininity throughout 5 years of school. after looking for the payment i was querying he simply looked at me and grinned in a way that must only be translatable by someone who is slightly, err, 'light on their feet'.

i still need to advocate my revenge for that one!

I did once send an envelope to someone I didn't like with 'Your Piles Clinic Surgery Confirmation' on the top left of the envelope. :roll:

Sorely tempted once when returning a magazine to someone to put summat like 'Your current edition of Sad Ba5tard Monthly is enclosed'. or 'FRAGILE - Penis Enlargement Pills'.

+1 on the bank transfer joke. Particularly if you're transferring someone some money for a stag do. I went on one recently and we co-ordinated our transfers so the best man's account was credited several times in a week for "erotic massage" and "colossal dildo".
