It should be 250x188 to maintain proportions, but here is what you wanted:

I'm just back from London and getting the next coach back if its not full, I can be there for 8am if there is space. drat sucks because I nearly booked a hotel while I was there.

If anyone else comes down il either be in the cafe across the street or the Wetherspoons next door, the Wetherspoons front window is the perfect place to record the action from but the drat locals hog the table, if i get there early I will be able to steal it though :)

I'm worried that he's going to get the package, be pissed, and never email you about it because he wants to cut all contact and minimize any more evidence, and we'll just be wondering how this prank ended with no satisfaction.

A photograph of him leaving the barbers with the package and getting into his car would be enough to inform the police if worthwhile, I seriously doubt this guys using anyone to pick up the packages for him and if he is the chances of an unregistered car are low. If someone were to contact the police when we establish the thread is dry and we have no more possible pranks I would imagine they would keep us informed although I guess they would keep the "PowerBook" for evidence or whatever. I imagine if I can get a photo of the guy with the package it will e brought up in years to come to serve as a good image macro anyway.

It’s probably just the usual exam time work avoidance I get at this time of the year though. Fortunately I travel by night and get sleep on the coach, if I get the fastest one I can make the journey in a speedy five hours each way.


Anyway I’m heading out ~11:15 and will be in London by 6:30 and Collindale for 7:30-8:00, I expect I will not have a chance to update with any images/videos till the whole mission is complete – I can’t get to a cybercafé to upload without risking missing this guy turning up but after I have got anything I will phone a friend to post in the thread if I have any information so long as I can get one who is at a computer – fairly likely.

An update with whatever I get tomorrow could be as late as 6pm GMT depending how late this git picks up the computer, im expecting bfore 2pm though so update should be before 3.

I've been following this thread since page 8 and I was weened off of it when the package was held in transit. I weeped when that occurred, but I thought the bit of weeping was ok considering I laughed myself until I soiled my pants. Today (may 10th) I see the thead had automagically come back to life and that the package was in transit. MyNameIsJeff, I <3 U and all the UK goons too. God drat... good times...
