    I wonder what the legality is of lacing something poisonous to ingest on food while posting it to yourself? Since your sending it to yourself you can't be accused of attempted/actual GBH, can you? If someone comes to harm through an illegal act isn't it their own fault? (morally maybe but I suspect you'd probably still end up in court)

    Have suggestion!!

    A friend of mine left his beer outside his back door and found that bottles were going missing. He took a couple of bottles with him to the bathroom and re-filled them with beer coloured liquid (!).

    A few days later the re-filled bottles went missing....

    No more beer has ever been taken!!

    Worth sending 'beer' to yourself through the post??:A :A

    I've not had any of my items being stolen - my knowledge - but the service from our postie has been nothing short of shocking. He'll regularly leave packages on the door, knocking on the door without knowing if anyone is in, and then walking away. And anything that requires a signature? It's not signed for full stop. Just shoved through with the 'remove and attach to form' label still on.
