Can I be prosecuted for wasting Royal Mail time?
Here’s one I made earlier. A Rubik’s Cube (which I bought, £4.99, bargain) covered in trimmed British postal stamps, different denominations to correspond with the six different colours on the cube.
After writing the address in a spread-out fashion (covering several sides), I screwed the puzzle up and threw it in the postbox (one of those shaft-based parcel boxes)
I can honestly say that I’m not expecting it to reach it’s destination by tomorrow lunchtime.

I’ve re-used stamps in a creative context. The actual item is in a clear sealed bag with more than enough (legal) postage on the exterior to cover it. This project isn’t intended to irritate, offend or upset anybody. If I were to be prosecuted for “fraudulently re-using stamps”, excuse the bad metaphor, but I think it’d be on par with the police arresting an idiot trying to buy a big mac with monopoly money. Are you all so serious at the Royal Mail?
