What can't you send through the post?

hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster hamster

Two students who sent a hamster through the post
as a drunken prank have been fined and banned
from owning animals.





The hamster found in a postbox is now named First Class.

And he's lucky to be alive. If he hadn't gnawed through the
envelope and been spotted by the postman, he may have died
in the sorting machine.

David Jordan and James Cole, both 19, admitted abandoning
the animal in circumstances likely to cause it unnecessary
suffering. They were both fined and banned from keeping
animals for 10 years.

Not only were the two Cambridge University students
committing a criminal offence, which they said they
did when drunk and as an act of revenge. They were also
breaking Royal Mail rules.

So what else can't you put in a parcel?

READ IT HERE!!

Silly fellas

Hey.... does anyone know whether or not you can send a laptop computer overseas in some way? There must be. I know apparently they contain all the parts to make an explosive, but of course, I'm just wanting my overseas girl to send me her comp as she's getting a new one.

cheers if y'all know...

I remember reading a booking called 'Flat Stanley when I was little about a boy who well, was flat basically. I remember he got posted through a letter box. In reality, I think it's pretty obvious you can't send a human being through the post.

When interviewed, the hamster said it was spurred to escape when it realized that the envelope was addressed to Richard Gere's residence.
