Put your name and your mobile phone number on the box. I always do that for all my luggage. Never put my address on.

Don't worry about customs, play it by ear.

Just for God's sake don't look shift. Don't even think shifty thoughts. If you think you might be starting to look shifty, think about how innocent you are. Shifty.

Good luck in customs. :)

Done just that, Shop. Name and number in +44 format, no address. It says 'Hotchkis SPT ANTI ROLL BAR AUDI RS6 FRNT AND RR BARS BLACK' on the box, sounds expensive, so will keep invoice with me to prove they are under the cap and should be hunky dorey.

I've lost my passport, check in opens in fourteen hours. Our airline fly on a weekly basis. :shock:

Good job, Amar. :thumbs:

You said you were thinking about not coming home. Looks like your subconscious did something about it. :)

Check in opens in about 5 hours, still no passport. Need to get down to the Police station after I've dragged myself out of bed to get a ref for reporting it misssig, and then to my appoitment with the British embassy here at 9am (7:19 currently). They asked me to bring £157 and two passport photos, but the Wal-Mart guys were useless and cut half my head off so they probably won't get accepted. Anyhow, it will be interesting. I should do a blog.

Better still, find your passport.

Have you retraced your steps? Called all the strip clubs and transvestite prostitutes you've been spending time with?

Haha, thought it were old people's town? Last I had it was when I went to Sixt to get a Passat. I'm now 200 miles away. Filed my police report, they wanted to know the hour and minute and where exactly I lost it! Done it online though so now got time for some breakie at the hotel.
