    Tricky one I wouldn't know what to suggest but I'd certainly find out what if any charges were likely over there........... I thought when you said one third heavier you'd gone over a set weight limit

    I'd just guestimated how heavy, going by some things i knew the weight of and guessing the rest. I think the actual box and cardboard to protect everything weighs a bit too! Come to 15kg altogether. Think I'll just send it and if there is a charge, then maybe I'll have to send some money if they can't afford it. No point in her gifts just sitting around in my place! Just a bit worried about the stollen fruit cake and shortbread-don't really want a £100 fine, but if they did fine me it would be taking the pee as there is no way that it would go off in transit. I know that you wouldn't send fruit, vegetables, meat, fish and things with cream etc, but cake and biscuits?

    ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH! Stupid booking form! It says list the items with the value, so I write them out and tick the box that says you haven't included any prohibited items, click on continue to next page and it just refreshes my page with all the info that i filled in cleared! I have now being filling it in for the last hour about 8 times! Don't know what to do now and I should be in bed!
