When you spend your days delivering parcels across the world, it’s easy to let your imagination run riot.
To keep ourselves amused, we play a fun little game we like to call ‘What’s in the Box’. The rules are pretty simple: everybody takes it in turns to guess the contents of a package; the more outlandish, amusing, witty or weird, the better. The winner is the person who comes up with the best suggestion.
Recent winning examples include: a chocolate-coated llama, the space-time continuum and, perhaps least imaginatively, some wool.
To let you in on the fun, we thought we’d run a competition. All you have to do is tweet us with your suggestions – we’re looking for the most imaginative, fun and funny ideas you can muster. No need to think outside the box on this one though – it’s what’s inside that matters. Ha ha. Ha.
The prize? £100 in high street vouchers. Not bad for a few minutes of brainstorming fun, eh?
For a bit of inspiration, we’ve even put together a little riddle. The answer reveals the true answer and there’s a brilliant Flip Camera for the first person to get the correct answer. Be warned though: this is seriously tricky!
Red and yellow, but totally white
On the inside it’s black as night
Square on the outside but perfectly round
It’s completely silent but makes a sound.
Let the games commence!
