A simple spelling mistake, the £25k PP that should have been addressed to Michael Gould, not Michael Bold.
Ooooh Watchforum jokes.

The once was a man from Mold,
Who received a nice parcel of gold,
3 months (suspended) in jail,
For the watch he got in the mail,
Because it was wrongly addressed to Mr Bold.

There once was a man ,name of Bold
Who got a nice watch made of gold
Nearly 3 months in jail
For what came in the mail
All because some fool sent it to Mold

Scans a bit better IMHO

Can I have a go?

There was a daft geezer from Mold,
Who snaffled a watch made of gold.
A rozzer said "Oi!"
"You're not keeping that, boy!"
And stuck him inside till he's old.

Apparently he had no intention of keeping the watch.

He was merely looking after it for the next generation.

£25K is a lot of money in Mold. £100K buys a property there.
£100k buys you a property in many places.

There once was a man came from Mold

A box, with a watch he would hold

He with sweaty hands

The Judge now commands

That watch is worth 25 grand

Has just happened to me, but with a Musto jacket.

Received two parcels, both addressed to me, opened them to find another jacket.
Emailed the company straight away, who took a week to respond and then sent out a courier to pick it up.

Not a word of thanks for being honest though. frown

Bang bang bang went the door
Opening up, it's the law!
Where's the watch, Mr Bold!
Did you really think you could keep that gold?

Patek Philippe, twenty five large
Thought it was mine, free of charge
You got me copper, I'll admit defeat
Check the car, beneath the seat

Suspended sentence, community payback
Looking back, not worth the flak
An error in the intermodal
Business as usual for our Yodel!

He should've clocked the mistake before opening the package.
