I have a cunning plan regarding these machines I am busy packing and loading but rest assured by this time next year I will be a millionaire.

...and another thing.
This 'home delivery service' is just yet ANOTHER example of BONE IDLE BRITAIN. evil:

Whilst I appreciate it is virtually essential for some, in the main, and IMO, it is just yet another sign that the great FAT lazy British sheeples are more concerned with watching shite tv, sitting there like the Billy bloaters that they are, stuffing yet another family sized pack of Hippopotomus flavour crisps down their rancifd little piggy faces, washed down with a gallon of diet coke, quick belch and scratch of the arse, than getting the weekly shop in. sick2:

Does it include the "purchase" of lightweight items such as expensive birthday cards held between other items, or thin items stuck together so that they go through as one?
