| | | Re: Deceased? No worries, not overly fond on rats anyhow. Decomposing one at the moment just for the skeleton, but I'm not trying to make a habit of it :P |

T2 | Someone sent me a mole wrapped in newspaper, in a plain box. Something similar should work so long as the corpse doesn't get bashed about too much.
Not only wanting deceased as said though, interested in any bones and skulls too. |

Jim | Probably best to notify PRS before you send it. Be a shame if it arrived on the first day of his Mediterranean cruise and he got back three weeks later to find a card from Royal Mail telling him there was a parcel for collection at the local Sorting Office! Might be a bit ripe by then.

| | | Re: Deceased? Don't the Royal Mail have certain regulations regarding the sending of 'food stuffs' through the post ? I'm thinking more along the line of seeping packaging and spread of disease, etc.
With Felixstowe docks just down the coast, I know they recently impounded a faulty container with blood leaking from the carcasses inside. The British exporter was fined a large amount because of the toxicology threats to the British Meat rearing industry.

Neil. | Been looking through Ebay and similar stuff is advertised quite often to be delivered by Royal mail or via courier. So I doubt it's illegal, guess it's the senders responsibility to make sure it's well packed in the first place |
