I've been trying to find out what can not be sent to our son when he gets to Afghanistan, but to no avail.

I've found details of maximum weight and dimensions, but that's all.

No grot, no pork, nothing that'll freeze.

No booze, no aerosols.

No body parts or weapons either.

I know you can't send animals and you probably wouldn't be able to send stuff like pigeons or tortoises either. Mice and goldfish may be okay though.

Useful things (I hope) I've sent friends.
Crisps, nuts, jerky, pork scratchings, wet ones, mints, chewing gum, tubes of condensed milk, coffee, tea bags, chilli and curry powder, hot chocolate that doesn't need added milk, cup a soups, croutons, mixed herbs, spare socks, lip balm, skin cream, mustard powder, love letters, tomato purée, biscuits, malt loaf, cakes, oxo cubes, boiled sweets, tinned meat, tinned cheese, tubes of cheese such as primula, wine gums, powdered milk and milk shake powder,you'll have to mess around with weights.

You're for the fucking high jump when the stealth invasion of the UK is complete and the sharia courts get their (clean, right) hands on you, infidel.
