Most excellent I have to go and collect a parcel from the sorting office today.  This will be posted elsewhere if you will forgive the pun. ;D

I've been expecting a delivery via ParcelForce. It was due to have arrived yesterday. It didn't. Today I phoned the supplier, they chased ParcelForce who advised that unfortunately the delivery driver had broken his foot but that it was scheduled for today.

It hasn't arrived.

I smell a rat. The first excuse I got when my parcel wasn't delivered was that the driver had broke his ankle so they couldn't ask him why  rubschin:  Prolly trippping over those red rubber bands that the postmen leave

Deliveries (NOT  evil: ) have been the bane of my life this week, not personally but what I'd advised a customer whose project I am managing. I hate the fact that suppliers say one thing and then do another  Banghead Banghead

I have arranged a special courier delivery for tomorrow morning and will probably have to go over there to ensure it's safe arrival ... I am currently tracking the bugger via the intermong  eveilgrin:

I ordered a book from AMazon as a gift for tomorrow's hostess. That was on MOnday, for guaranteed overnight delivery. It was dispatched today. cussing:
