It is against the rules of the trade to only offer delivery to a locker. You must be prepared to ship to the recipient's chosen UK address
Although you can still use inpost to deliver it, given it is cheaper than RM for heavy things.

Can't say it rings a bell, but it does sound cool!
Also gives me inspiration for later - but I'm not sure that one includes amnesia.

Clue 2: The mutations disappear as soon as the specific alien that caused them is dead. Whenever the main character finds one, he usually tries to kill them regardless, but he also has a very weird way of checking whether this is "the one" or not

What I also do is write a newspaper between sessions, which not only writes about their adventures, but manages to sneak in tidbits about the setting as well - attacks by mutants, witch hunters burning down heretic villages, info about the tone of the setting that PCs would otherwise find in the form of rumours in pubs, if they would take the trouble of finding out about the current gossip.

When I started my WFRP campaign, I gave my players a four page document with information about the tone of the setting (low fantasy), the pantheon, a short summary of the political situation of the empire, its geography and history, people's beliefs, and so on. I think that the players should have some idea of what their characters know.What I also do is write a newspaper between sessions, which not only writes about their adventures, but manages to sneak in tidbits about the setting as well - attacks by mutants, witch hunters burning down heretic villages, info about the tone of the setting that PCs would otherwise find in the form of rumours in pubs, if they would take the trouble of finding out about the current gossip.

If the game was scheduled long in advance and there is a wiki, I send them to it. Unless i want them to stay unaware of some things, in which case I print out the parts I am interested in.
If there is none, I write an intro.
If the game was decided shortly before, I do it in verbal.

At the start of a new party in a new setting, how much, and what kind of in-world knowledge do you dump on your players because they should know it as a consequence of growing up in the world. Also, how do you deliver it to them? (printed, online wiki/doc, narrative, etc)

Just started on There is no anti memetics division, really quite liking it but secretly worried that it’ll turn out a little pretentious or too clever for its own good.
