Clever ebay scam (I reckon)

Just cool the water to 4 degress celcius, its at that temp its densest (sp). Technically, ml for ml, it'll be heavier than water at room temp

You don't seem to get the idea. I'm planning on selling him a bucket full of ordinary, room temperature, tap water. With a brick in the bucket

It'll probably be advertised as being better for his car screenwash etc. On the principal that the heavy water runs down the window smoother, and therefore removes more dirt with it.

Really? If you have some spare I will buy some. Does it leave white marks when it dries?

No residue is left remaining. How much would you like to order? I'm sure I can stuff maybe 2l into an A4 sized envelope.

I'll obviously remove the brick first as this will only add too much to the postage costs, and isn't put in your car anyway.

Current going rate is £10/litre.

I will look into that.

Find out where they live. And burn their house down.


(But leg it in and get my Dell laptop when they are all running about in terror. cheers.)
