Re: Whats the daftest thing shipped over?
I thought my packers had been really good - despite me forgetting to put them on the 'do not pack' pile they left out the phone books and take away menus - 10 points to them
Then I got here and unpacked my little pile of coppers (as in money not the police variety!!) so 10 points off.
Then I found a little package, wrapped around with loads of brown tape that took ages to undo, then layers and layers of wrapping paper - to eventually find....one used teabag!!!!
LMFAO It has to be a deliberate joke to cheer you up during the tedious unpacking!!

Hee hee, what with me being famous of course would be worth a fortune. It was a PG Tips one, so could probably have used it and even after 3months got a stronger cuppa than your average Kiwi brand

Well probably the daftest thing we discovered when we started unpacking our belongings was an almost empty container of Koi Fish Food that the packers had wrapped and boxed off. Image of fish floating on the garden pond back in the UK springs to mind

Re: Whats the daftest thing shipped over?
This is a great thread, people in work must think I am nuts and I am giggling away and more importantly I just just discovered this site is not blocked (could be bad for my to do list).
I will be packing all the boxes myself as it cheaper so hope to not find anything strange but as I have to leave them open to be checked you never know.

Hi Loui5a.
I'll split your question into a thread of its own. That way you should catch more people to help and answer with stuff to bring or not bring.
it will also leave this thread clear for the daftest things shipped.
Cheers
