Yeah, I know you f'ing well called. We saw you... well we saw you drop the card through anyway. You certainly didn't ring the bell and you sure as hell didn't have the special delivery packet we were waiting for with you!! If only I wasn't upstairs on the phone as I saw you jog back up the drive to your van.

Now the annoying thing is he has ringed the 'please leave it 48 hours' - which used to be 24.

Great, needed it today hence guaranteed before 1pm delivery - and now I can't collect until Friday.

Extra pay my arse.

Does anyone know if it will actually be there for collection tomorrow if I try? Probably worth a go considering I need what's in it!

I'm sure 'blowup Betty' will be in fine fattle in Friday. Until then Redtube will have to be your poison.

I never worry about how long they suggest to leave it. Have always popped along to sorting office around 6pm on the day of (attempted) delivery and it's been fine.

Yeah I would have tried today but they are only open 7:30am until 1pm - it's annoying as this sets back a project I am keen to start on by at least a day if not longer if I have to wait until Friday. Pick it up Friday and it might not be acted on until Monday, we are nearly at Christmas etc etc.

You know how it is. Surveyors do f**k all in December!

Lol, proper surveyors are busy as anything - for the first time in years I've pretty much just got the Bank Holidays and weekends off this Christmas.
