Well I didn't get a chance to box up the tape deck and the amp over the weekend but thankfully my wonderful wife did it for me today ready to post tomorrow.

She didn't know which bit was going to which person so she didn't put the labels on. I now have two identical, well wrapped and taped boxes ready to post.

Any idea which contains what?

Tomorrow I will have to tactfully broach the subject of cutting through all that tape and packaging to find out which on is the tape deck and which the amp.

Can't you stick a carrot in to test it?

Oh, no, that was something else....

Surely the amp will be heavier than a tape deck?

Good point JimW - I will see if there is a noticeable weight difference between the boxes.

Guys - JimW is to blame if you get the wrong thing 🙂

Would guess you are rubbish at posting on time because you put it at a lower priority than other stuff you are doing. Either that or you just don't ever get anything done 🙂

I over prioritise postage and have stuff ready to go before it has even been sold and then post it same day most of the time.

Fly somewhere and take both packages as hand luggage and slip the security staff a few quid to tell you which package has the the thing that's going to make a loud noise in and which one has the hissing thing in it. Foolproof

i always try and take enough pictures that everything is covered, then package them up straight away. As like you, i sometimes struggle to get motivated to! Then if someone asks something specific, i hope my pics will cover it.

But good luck and godspeed with your quest to identify the items!
