I would never contradict ANYTHING you say normally Judy, but I will now. I have to disagree with your assertion that womens undies are just bits of cloth sewn together, if you had the brain of a male you wouldn't have given that piece of advice. There was a guy late one night a couple of years ago jumping over back fences in our road stealing underwear from clothes lines, he was eventually caught by a neighbour who grabbed him until the police arrived. My sister had to sack a babysitter because her boyfriend was rummaging through her underwear drawer, caught by one of her children. How about men who pay for women to send their underwear to them in the post for payment? Underwear to a man is a sexual delicacy, argue with me if you like but unless you can get into the brain of a human heterosexual male you really have no idea of the filth that goes on in there

And there was that bloke who got his rocks off by having sex with a car exhaust pipe... Or the guy in the paper a few weeks ago who had a fetish for ladies shoes, the police found thousands of pairs of them at his home.
Nothing is safe from our sexual depravity...

So ladies, keep your underwear with you at all times, you never know what they're doing in that container

If I were a woman I'd be a lesbian.

And no personal insults please. I have NO such thoughts.

Or as Bart Simpon is wont to say, "Eat my shorts."

Oh well, I tried...

It was a VERY good try Steve

i hope you're talking about the removers not your undies at this point!!

When we came over, Souvette had to do a very detailed list for customs purposes (description, age, value, replacement value). It took weeks and ran to about 70 pages. All my stuff was also on there.

On arrival in TO the customs guy asked for the value of what belonged to the returning Canadian and what belonged to the newly landed immigrant.

After watching me with a calculator for several minutes he relented and simply asked if the total value of my stuff was more than $X. The only answer to that question is "no". I forget what the figure was. $70k rings a bell but it could have been $100k.

People who will soon be packing or visiting Canada should take heed of the latest foot & mouth outbreak in the UK. Both Agriculture Canada and customs are probably going to get very picky.

I'm with steve on this one, and no I don't have a human hetersexual male brain - but I sure do have an idea of the depravity that goes on up there

skiboy10 - just pack your own undies in a bag and leave it in the drawer - that's what I did.

And Judy - I couldn't possibly fit all my undies in my suitcase - I stocked up at M&S before I left !!

Well I'm glad you asked, I have a lot of "undies" and after having it stolen regularly from my yard I am quite paranoid (my OH caught the guy 1 night) but thats another story

I've decided I'm going to be over my baggage allowance anyway, so a few extra kilos of "undies" wont matter.

Judy,

Thanks for this.....

At the moment, my belongings have gone into storage with Britainnia...I might have to pull out this stuff from storage and itemise this properly then put back in storage...will I have to itemise clothes as well like shirts, trousers, skirts (for the OH of course)....hope I don't!!!:curse::curse:

Britainnia did say that they would itemise everything and they have been just general with the inventory.....

Thanks

Brian

Hey Souvenir,

Sorry....stupid question time again.....does this mean EVERTHING, including clothes you had to give an age, value, replacement value.....

Thanks

Brian

I have just got off the phone with Britannia...they have never heard of the PERSONAL EFFECTS ACCOUNTING DOCUMENT (B4-05e).

They are checking this out now with the export shipping agent they use.....

:curse::curse::curse:

I'll let all you guys know what the outcome is.....

Thanks and fingers crossed!!!

Brian

Stop PRESS!!!

Britannia have told just me that their shipping agent has never heard of this....I don't need to fill this form in as the Inventory that Britannia has completed is sufficient....
It seems that the PERSONAL EFFECTS ACCOUNTING DOCUMENT (B4-05e) is only filled in for people that are packing and shipping their own goods themselves.....

Panic over!!!!!



.....unless anyone can say otherwise

Complete and utter bovine excrement.

It's not the guy from Britannia who'll have to communicate with the Canadian customs official at your port of entry. It'll be you. And that customs official won't give a rat's backside who packed your shipment.

Judy,

Who did you use to ship your goods then????

Thanks

Brian

Kent International Movers. But that was from Melbourne to Calgary. Sorry, I've never lived in the UK, and hence have never moved to or from the UK.
