Buggar!

Paul...Tinkling the ivories!... ...!

My order of Doritos is ready for pick up.

I have always wondered why so many containers stacked that way??
will not have enough cargo ships???

Any of you ever been in the Biscay with some winds!?

Most of the lost containers were emty, that might have caused the problem!

A container full of cigarettes has just washed up in Cornwall from this. The police are telling people to stay away...........Mind you even as an ex-smoker, I am not sure I would stoop as low as damp salty smokes......

All joking aside, just wait till some of that stuff from the Japan Tsunami syarts washing up on shore all over the place again.

That is what most people thought the last time it happened in Cornwall. A container full of BMW motorbikes washed up along with quite a bit of other stuff. You can remove it, but the mistake most people made was not to report the find to the police. The property still belongs to the original owner. It is up to them whether they want it back or not.
