You can, but that's just a case and it's covering up quite a few items of mystery :)

If it's come from @mrbombermillzy , there could be anything in that box.
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

He's from Southampton, so more likely to be a sharks head or something
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.
