Blimey it was downright civil when the colonials were left to their own devices, good thing we're here to rectify that lads  :drink:

Can't be having any civility. :think: :cheers:

UPDATE:

I have now collected the P.i.F (2021) package and have rifled examined the contents*, very nice it was too (cheers Alan  :cheers: )

I have removed a couple of items and I'll replace them with things I hope will be of interest to GF and others  :dunno:

I will endeavour to send it to foreign lands early next week and will announce its departure accordingly  :salute:

Stay safe awl  :tu:

About bloody time.  I was beginning to think it all had been abandoned.

Another couple of items collected today so I just need to finalise the contents and get a suitable box. Then the fun of posting begins  ::)

Don't start with the tapping thing there Alan  :twak: :rofl:

I purchased the box today and I'm in the process of filling it up for GF (even though he's Welsh)  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

I removed a couple of things which will be apparent when GF posts his pics'. I'm sure you'll approve of my choices  :dunno:
I did order "one more thing" ( :hatsoff: Peter Falk) which would be a shame to leave out for GF, so watch this space... :whistle:

I was thinking of sending him a replica of the Webb Ellis Cup :whistle:

I'm working during post office hours Mon-Weds so the P.i.F might not leave until Thursday (a.m) but it WILL be sent by the fastest possible option (African Swallow & Welsh Racing Sheep  ;)

On a slightly more serious note; one of the items I was waiting for has not arrived and may have to be posted at a later date, so that GF can decide whether to keep or pass on  :dunno:

Update:

I'll pack and weigh the P.i.F tomorrow and then post; if I get time in the afternoon (work etc  :dunno: )

I've had to give up on one item (lest it never arrive ::) ) but have added another instead  :D

NB: The missing one will be sent separately to GF when it arrives :tu:

UPDATE:   

The P.i.F Package has departed England's green and pleasant land for the dark side; where grown men wander the hills and valleys terrorising unsuspecting visitors with their close harmony singing  :ahhh   

I have strapped it to the fastest "Royal Mail Postal Rat"  that London has to offer! Said rat will then pass it to some woolly creature at the border who will, in turn, deposit it with another (no doubt) woolly creature who answers to the name of GF  :whistle:

I'll post a pic of stuff I pillaged decided to keep from the box after GF has posted his arrival pic  ;)
Cheers and thanks to you awl  :hatsoff: :cheers:

As a man of her majesty's law and order you might appreciate the following news  :hatsoff:

"England’s World Cup preparations were delayed nearly two hours today after a player reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the practice field.

Head coach Stuart Lancaster immediately suspended practice while police and CSI Twickenham were called to investigate.

After a complete analysis, investigating forensic experts determined that the white substance unknown to players was the try line.

Practice was resumed after investigators decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again."

Very worrycited to see what you packed away  :tu:

As much as I hate to give you a win, but I begrudgingly admit that I live atop a rather tall hill, and the missus regularly refers to my hair as 'wool' due to its thickness. I'm a naff singer though  ::)

It was less than 24 hours from drop off to my door, Surge went for the steroid using Corgis  :whistle:

You all know what this means though, whilst waiting for my picture to crop up:

Whoever wants it next has to PM me, otherwise it'll just loiter here without paying any rent  :twak:

Michael we all saw you eying it up  :pok:

Thanks again to Surge and Alan, and to the boss for starting this off and the poker chips and sticker I forgot to include in the pic  :facepalm:

To be fair Alan this has awlways been the case for stuff from the U.S (even then it may not actually arrive  :rant: )

It didn't help that I couldn't collect it for a week or so after it did arrive  ::)

Still, the P.i.F will continue its journey across the globe (although I believe the next trip is local as well  :think: )
