Quick delivery?

Two men in the UK caused hilarity when loading their delivery truck in a less than efficient manner.

    Two men were recently caught cycling at night in New Zealand without clothing. The men escaped charges of offensive behaviour but were given warnings to wear protective headgear. The policewoman who stopped the pair was less shocked than the two young men, who were riding around the Coromandel seaside resort of Whangamata on the north-east coast of New Zealand.
