Grand Central 2,654 Posted March 19, 2021 Good grief personal service to the door, ahead of the expected time, and some people moan. You just want to throw in the towel and tell them to sod off. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I used to run home/direct delivery services way back, all the deliverers had a printed out list of customer addresses rather than having to scrawl anything on the item!. Deliverers were also instructed to push the item all the way through the letter box and not leave it 'sticking out'! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And with no plastic around it, it will mean dolphins can also live long and prosper, (but maybe not as long as the trees).. And with no 'adhesive pre printed labels' on the cover, old horses can also live on to a hopefully ripe old age..

bellevueace 912 Posted March 24, 2021 Well I've still not received last week's star yet, delivery had got back to normal just after Christmas so don't know if the latest disruption is due to the new courier, I'm not bothering contacting pinegen as if it does arrive will be a week old and hopefully this week's will arrive.
