What's the Postie brought you today?

They take much longer to chew, mind.

I love kittens, but I'm not sure I could eat a whole one...

 

[fossyant]

You do realise that the best toy for a kitten is... another kitten...

But I see that she takes bicycle guarding seriously.

No it's not, it's three kittens.

PS My Luna say's hello. So does Leo, Simba and Kyoto.

New cassette and chain for the Marin. Spannering tomorrow!

@ColinJ did the item turn up?

Thanks for asking!

No sign of it here...

The people at the P.O. yesterday said that no parcels had been delivered there at the time I got the message saying that it had been delivered.

Royal Mail said that in the case of a problem, the first thing to do would be to report non-delivery to the sender after the official delivery date. (Seems odd since RM said that they HAD delivered it!)

I used the ebay messaging system yesterday to report the problem. No response by this afternoon so I emailed the supplier directly, but that wasn't until nearly 5 pm so I wasn't really expecting a response today. I really would like a response by lunchtime tomorrow. If not, I will phone them.

The P.O. is open until 3 pm tomorrow. I will wait in until 2:30 in case RM try to deliver here. If not I will go back to the P.O. and try again.

At least there is now a record of me having complained about non-delivery. If all else fails, I will contact PayPal and claim a refund. The problem would be if the supplier uses the RM statement of delivery as 'proof' and PayPal believed it. Mind you, I've read that PayPal normally accept the word of the customer!

The company who sent me my missing parcel was closed today so I couldn't phone them. I went down to the P.O, again instead and got them to have another look for the parcel. It took a bit of finding, but it WAS there. (There had been mislabelling, leading to the parcel ending up in a store room upstairs rather than where the parcels are normally kept downstairs.)

The other catch was that I had told them that the parcel would be 'about this size', as I moved my hands about to indicate the size that I expected it to be - object size plus about 20%. No, no, no - I forgot about people who really hate trees and LOVE big parcels...

Ladies and Gentleman, let me show you my new very slimline rack sitting on its 300% oversized box!

I am just having a coffee, and after that I will go and fit it. I'm looking forward to carrying my shopping, bike tools, spares etc on the bike rather than my back!

I’m glad it turned up but that part of their story sounds dodgy as.

Could be plausible if the PO also takes in other shops stuff such as collect+ or Evri especially when it’s in an off-licence.

I am sure it was a mix-up rather than evil plotting... they did seem pleased when they finally found it!

A phone offer from ee. Not the brackets I was waiting for to put up a shoe rack nor the araldite to mend the kitchen cabinet knobs. Grrrh!

The postie looked puzzled as to why I had waylaid him until I explained that I was waiting for something more exciting....
