Jojo box

So I'm sending this package to [livejournal.com profile] josephides and decided to look up the UK shipping restrictions.



Any postal item containing enclosures addressed to different persons at different addresses.
    Check.
Arms and parts of arms, except as noted under Observation #5 below.
    Am not shipping guns or body parts. Check.
Articles, goods infringing British trademarks or copyright laws.
    What WienerconTM Soap doesn't know won't hurt them.
Cards decorated with mica or ground glass or similar materials unless they are placed in envelopes.
    *puts pile of crushed glass in envelope*
Citizens Band Radios, walkie-talkies, microbugs, and radio microphones that are capable of transmitting on any frequency between 26.1 and 29.7 megacycles per second and 88 to 108 Mhz per second.
    *removes wire tap* Really. It's gone, Jojo. No need to cut up the box. Really.
Goods made in foreign prisons, except those imported for a non-commercial purpose or of a kind not manufactured in the UK.
    Dammit. *removes "I Bend For Soap" mug*
Horror comics and matrices.
    Jojo will be so disappointed.
Obscene articles, prints, paintings, cards, films, videotapes, etc.
    *blurs picture of photocopied butt*
Perishable infectious biological substances.
    But non-perishable infectious biological substances are okay, right? Because I've got a... Never mind. It's a surprise.
Seal skins except those from an accepted source.
    Yup. Got 'em from Joe's Whack a Cub.
Switchblade knives.
    Now, really. Those are *so* 80s.

Horror comics

*blink*

WTF??? This from the birthplace of Neil Gaiman and Grant Morrison, land of all that creepy stuff I used to pick up at the shop by the roundabout in fourth grade? *boggle*

Damnit, you made me snort from laughing too hard.

So, does this mean that they can send us seal skins?

You are so funny, my dear. I loved this!

Obscene articles, prints, paintings, cards, films, videotapes, etc.

Dude, ocscene can mean so many things. What if I want to send copies of Fox's "Who's Your Daddy?"

I have *no* idea what that's all about. Possibly a secret underground league of anti-comic book writers and their quest to make the UK a comic-free zone?

And that was just the restrictions. I gave up when I got to the conditionals and it started talking about queen bees.

Hmm. Quite possibly. Must remember not to give Jojo new address.

Maybe that's why they're exporting people like Grant and unca neil...

So the British are daft, and anyone's surprised? ;-)

But just for kicks, read the restrictions for sending stuff to the US! ;-)

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2005-01-19 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm sure the restrictions coming to the US are even more nuts. :D
