The item I bought with same-day delivery, to replace the one that disappeared into the bowels of Milton Keynes is on the move. It's arrived at ...I don't need to say it, do i? Milton-bloody-Keynes.

My replacement item arrived at 7:30 last night. The original, that was still in Milton Keynes, buggered off to Bardon, in Leicestershire, last night. Bearing in mind it had been at Milton Keynes since 2:47 AM yesterday morning I really fail to see why they couldn't have at least pointed the bloody thing in the right direction and actually delivered it to me either yesterday, or today.

Oh, oh, I have another delivery via APC scheduled for tomorrow.
I vow to be in all day as I don't want to have to drive to Wokingham again.

I still haven't got the " Prestige x Nadiya Roasting Tin Non Stick" I specifically ordered to arrive the Saturday before Christmas, (dis)courtesy of Amazon's Named Day non-delivery service. So far, its journey has taken in St Helens, Milton Keynes, and Bardon, Leicestershire, where it arrived on Saturday, 23 December. It left Bardon on Tuesday (Dec 26 th) for parts unknown. Amazon still insist it will be delivered by DPD, but in case it isn't with my by Friday I should ask for my money back. DPD have been telling me, for the last couple of days, " We've received your order details, but have not yet received your parcel". With any luck I won't now have to refuse delivery, because it will never actually arrive. The bloody thing's 20% off now, too.  |

The really annoying thing is, if it ever did turn up I'd need to return it, which would cost me more in cab fares than the value of the actual item, which means it'd be cheaper for me to actually purchase something which is now useless to me through no fault of my own. My only hope would be to refuse delivery if I caught the DPD delivery guy before he dumped my parcel and legged it. |

Well, my Interparcel/Fedex delivery has been twice delayed with no explanation given.
It's now due for delivery today with safe place given. We'll see.

Just to put the finishing touch to the story of my roasting pan (see above), of which I still have seen neither hide nor hair, I received this email from Amazon this morning...  |

Royal Mail let me down today.
I paid for Tracked 24 and they have failed on both counts - it wasn't delivered today and the tracking hasn't been updated all day. Piss poor.
