HI
Im hoping that there maybe a few of you here that may know the answer to my question and maybe kind enough to leave some advice.
My cousin is serving at the min Im sending him a X-mas stocking/box with a few bits and sweets, tooth paste and silly small presents.
When I was out shopping I found some small silly christmas crackers I thought they would be great to go with the bits to....

But can I send them?

Looking on the web some sites say you cant send crackers cus of the bang bit but can I send them if a take the bang bit out...I could put anote on them saying there is no bang in them...
Does any one know if I can send them and if I can what do I need to do with them?

Im pretty sure you cant send them as they are.

dangerous air cargo lol.

take the bang out, and you should be fine. i would write it on the package as 'christmas decorations'.

put your note on. you aren't breaking any rules if you aren't sending the bang bit lol.

maybe send them in a different package so that if it does get impounded, the rest will still get there?
just in case...
