Mystery parcel?
 
2 Attachment(s)
I had this package delivered to my home address yesterday - can you guess what it contained?

A few clues:

1. I do work for a diagnostics company, but not Roche
2. We use dry ice at work, but it wasn't sent from there
3. I have no medical/scientific facilities at home

Answer later today.......

An old sperm bank?

Not as strange an answer as you might think - friends mum was a fertility specialist and we used to use hers as a stool lol

:ROFL: Now come on (you) mate, that just sounds like a really poor excuse as to why you have strange marks on the seat of your trousers. It’s fine we’ll not judge you :ROFL:

Yep, that's it.

I went to change the bulb at the weekend, forgetting that James (previous owner) had changed them to HIDs. The mounting bracket for the capacitor on the nearside had broken and shot off towards the rear of the engine tray/floor. In doing so, it had pulled the back off the fog light unit and broken one of the securing lugs, as well as smashing the bulb!

So, I had to order new bulbs from fleabay (local car parts shop doesn't stock them) and a fog light from A8 Parts. Still waiting for the bulbs, but the fog light arrived the next day! +++

Another one of those '10 minute jobs'. :(
