Shocked What, DHL have boats that go around in circles? Confused

A GPS running for 55 days in a case, some batteries!

If it is true of course. Wink

Now we know why our parcels take so long - all those loops

Maybe it started off as just a parcel being sent from A to B and it just happened to take this roundabout route, so the story was hatched

Looks as if the person who did photo Image - TRUE PLACES, had been on the bottle before starting.

They should have taken a compass to get straighter lines.

Mr Nweke wants my help to get $8,300,000.00 out of Nigeria too - but he needs a payment by credit card first.

Foiled again - I only have my credit card on days not ending with a 'Y', my wife looks after it at all other times Wink
