Received a scam Royal Mail text. Very convincing, linked to Royal Mail website. Asking for £2.70 shipping fee otherwise parcel will be returned to sender.

I am actually waiting for a parcel so this could have slipped through.

Think I had the same one.  The give away always seems to be the e-mail address/domain name.

What is it with BBC Sport seemingly having a remit that at least one pundit must be wearing lensless hipster specs or at least one pundit wearing a Peaky Blinders cap. Shearer looks a prick and on MOTD2 the other night Keown looked fucking ridiculous in the hipster specs.

Just fucking be you fellas. Could understand if they were new presenters but they are big boys. Bring back Mark Lawrenson and his slug tache.

Definitely but if you buy the Lidl versions they are just as superior and you get more in the box. Still not enough but progress nonetheless.

And the dark chocolate ones.  Milk is good, but the dark ones are great.

Indeed. All over them like a cheap suit. Their J.D Gross 80% Dark is wonderous, for eating and cooking with. Anything but "gross". Unless one isn't a fan of darker chocolate of course. Better for folk who might have dairy intolerances though.

You sure that is a scam and not eh annoying impact of Brexit - lots of new customs fees need to be charged for deliveries in and out of the UK from/to the EU now.  The delivery firm is responsible for collecting them, not the retailer/individual you buy it from, so they charge you before they will let you get the item.

Scan mate, everyone's getting them.  Check the email address, bet there's a misspelling in it.

Don’t think so. Mrs Audrey ordered something from Amazon but put my Greek tel no on the order. The text came on my UK phone and was from a mobile number which raised the red flag for me. I’ll call Royal Mail tomorrow to see if it’s legit.

I’ll be ordering from Amazon.de from now on.

I swear they intentionally put a tiny bit of sugar under the fold of the packet on purpose...

I suppose it is a small payback to the origins of the sugar cane industry, or at least is would be nice if that were true.

Bastarding sugar!
