I got a book some time last week. It has my name and address on it. It is from Christchurch. Initially I thought it was a book sent from someone from Trade Me, a mistake. I soon realised it wasn’t, as none of the sellers I had recently traded with were from Christchurch. It gets weirder: The sender’s surname is Mozgov, the stamp was placed in the top-left corner of the envelope, the handwriting contains a mixture of upper and lower-case characters and the book is entitled “Allen Carr’s Easy Way to Stop Smoking” — yet no one in my family, let alone myself smokes.

I’ve decided to re-sell this gift from this mysterious man, to make a profit. I predict it will go for a sound $12 NZD.

Update: Damn, I found the owner.
