Well, I've finally had it with all this eco-friendly, namby-pamby, save-the-planet green recycling business. This afternoon the postman turned up with the shipment of gardening stuff that I'd ordered from Ebay last week. And with a very strange look on his face.
Yes, the Ebay vendor had opted to save the trees and the dolphins and the birds of the air by packing my goods into a leftover cardboard box which he just happened to have lying about the place. The fact that it was emblazoned, in inch-high bold lettering, with the words "COCOA BUTTER BUST CREAM" was presumably unintentional.
Or not. As he headed back toward his van, I could swear the bastard postman was sniggering.

Rather poor grammar in my inexpert opinion. COCOA BUTTON BROKEN CREAM would be better, whatever broken cream is.
