Re: What went in the container that shouldn't have?!
Sorry if this is a little off topic but SWMBO has got it in her head that huge savings can be made by bringing a lifetime supply of Pantene (other shampoo's are available) when we move.
Before the rapidly growing stash takes over our entire utility room, does anyone know if MAF have objections to industrial quantities of hair products being put in containers?

Re: Rant thread
We just finished unpacking all of our stuff from the move to Milford.
Now our stuff had been in storage for 6 weeks until we found a place.
When unpacking the last few boxes the Geniuses of removal men had packed our Cats Litter tray that was out side (to be disposed of) in a leather bound box - COMPLETE WITH POO !!!!!!!!!! WTF was going through their minds?!?!?!?!

Here we go. I knew it had been mentioned before.
SeanSueplusTwo have topped it I think with the cat litter tray plus poo.

Well it was not supposed to be packed,, But the packers put my partners old fishing bag that was in the loft in the UK,,
Inside was essence of worm ,rotten maggots and decayed fish bait !!!
Needless to say MAFF did not spot it,, but we got an unpleasant surprise when we opened it in NZ

I brought half of Boots with me... remember to tape up all bottle lids and line a box with plastic just in case of leakage.

One of the P45's so we still can't do tax return.... remember certificates, references, insurance docs etc - I made a list on the front of an envelope and ticked it off as I added everything in....

Half of Boots? things like what? trying to work out what to bring with me and what can buy reasonably in NZ.

Thanks for this thread I've finally convinced OH we should bring all our stuff with us - he wanted to come over with just a suitcase of clothes! I'm going to have him read this thread

I bet those packers have a right old laugh. Probably have a competition to see who can pack the most obscure item. Taken me a while to stop laughing at the cat litter plus poo post

You can pick up cheap shampoos in the supermarket but they're really not the same
