Filth...does that mean I can't send those fetted lumps of mud from the cow field down at the bottom of the garden? mind you i suppose that comes under environmental waste.

don't you love the way they state both above and below the 70% alcohol limit but never actually say exactly 70%...?
AH HA!! LOOPHOLE!!! lets crank up that special home brew a notch or two; from 'intoxicating' to 'blinding'.

wait - how the heck can I fit all this in a 'letter'? assuming a letter is a flat envelope. the aptly named 'parcel' being the fatter, capaceious version.
