Need to type up a handwritten list

25/26/28...Box - ??????

It’s probably miscellaneous Kitchen equipment but can anyone decipher what they’ve actually written?!

Thank you!!

Could it be 5 plates
Or splates??

Is it a storage/shipping inventory? It might be an empty box filled with bluff / packing material in order to stabilise the load.
(I used to work for a storage and international removals company)

TheOnlySnot · 03/08/2019 16:11

Box spaces and box cups?

It is @TiggeryBear!
I did wonder if it was a sort of code but I need to try and clarify it before the load arrives next week (cant call company in time) as someone else is ticking all the items off and there’s a bit of a language barrier to explain it all in detail!

I also have 2 items that are confusing me
Shoes- STAND
2 X box STAND

Any idea why only those have stand next to them?

Box - 15 pieces
Box - 5 pieces
Box - cups
Box - 5 pieces

With pieces misspelled as peaces? Hard to decipher without more context.

kikibo · 03/08/2019 16:16

Pieces, that's what I thought.

8 pieces?

OneThreadOnly0101 · 03/08/2019 16:17

It definitely says "speaces". Sorry OP 😐

Youwanapizzame · 03/08/2019 16:20

Could it be x 5 plates?

BadgerBadgerMushroom · 03/08/2019 16:26

Is there any way of getting in contact with the person who wrote it? Is it someone you work with?

Picklypickles · 03/08/2019 16:27

The last one looks like 5 boxes of spells.

loulou0987 · 03/08/2019 16:31

Sp & ales? Spirits and ales??

MoobaaMoobaa · 03/08/2019 16:34

it's not a 5 as the person writes 5 differently.

looks like speaces to me so I would mean spacers like marzipan spacers.

autumneve · 03/08/2019 16:35

If it were '5 peaces' then the '5' would look the the same as in "25" in top left. Also the 's' looks the same as the s's that make the words plural.

Can we have a clue what the list is for?

NoBaggyPants · 03/08/2019 16:35

What is the person's first language?

DotBall · 03/08/2019 16:44

5 Places etc.

TiggeryBear · 03/08/2019 16:47

It might be that they've called the boxes "Spacers" then.

Loveislandaddict · 03/08/2019 16:51

S p cages?

JammyMe · 03/08/2019 16:51

Spoons? Sounds similar when read aloud.

Loveislandaddict · 03/08/2019 16:53

Speales?

5 peales

5 plates? (T not clear)

Thanks all! I’ve just written it as its written on the paper!

No idea what the writers first language is, I’ve never met them and cant contact them so figure its just easiest to write it as is!

pikapikachu · 03/08/2019 19:50

I think it's "pieces" too but could it be speakers?

GettingTooOldForThis · 03/08/2019 20:31

Specials?

Kez200 · 03/08/2019 21:13

Why would 3 numbers be the same thing. So could it mean spaces? So those numbers are currently free.
