Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

During the whole anthrax episode about 3/4 years ago, I thought it would be a nice romantic gesture to post some Love Heart sweets to my then girlfriend. So I popped them in the envelope and sent them away thinking nothing of it.
A few days later I saw a story on the news about an envelope which had caused the closure of several sorting offices in Wales. Everybody who may have dealt with the envelope was tested for anthrax and the places concerned were closed for forensics. The sample later turned out to be Love Heart sweets which had powderised in transit.
What romantic gestures have gone horribly wrong for you?
