You are not going to believe this one, but I was trying to send some stuff home so I did not have to carry so much in my suitcase so I had it all packaged up in brown boxes and sent Denis with money to the Post Office to fill out the customs forms and send the packages. He came back with my money and packages. I asked what happened and he said they had to be "wrapped them in a white 'bedsheet' or 'pillowcase'!" I died laughing and asked what in the world is that for and the response, so they can stamp it and no one can get into it. This is no joke, I am for real and even saw it first hand when I made Denis go with me and for me to try it. There in line was a person with her sewn bedsheet wrapped around the package. I too was told the same thing Denis was and my package still did not get shipped. I bought some white material from the fabric store and was going to tape it on when Denis tells me it must be glued or sewn. I said forget it and called DHL and will pay the extra to have them shipped and to be honest, is probably the safer and more efficient way to send things anyway. I just had to share my frustrations with you.

What are they thinking!
I cannot believe this! There must be a huge problem with missing items in the mail. It puts a new twist on pillow packed product. I can hardly wait for that to hit the US.
