And the winner is:

Back in your box seekayess - try writing something funny and you can run it exactly how you like!
Right, Judging Time
In third place:
MostlyHarmless
"Is it just me or is eBay getting to be a right pain in the arse?"

And in second place, correctly identifying that the white packages are actually a drugs seizure:
Lafyar Cokov , with 'The drinks order is back from the mainland - who ordered coke????'

And the winner this time, with a very quick and witty response is
brickhistory with:
'To save time, the Iranians started dropping their 'gift' bags in bulk........'
