I'm wondering if the courier company is DPD? They give a one hour delivery window and an online tracking facility that lets you track progress of the delivery van. I've had deliveries from them when at about 9.30 I've been about the 50th drop but still they've made the delivery window of say between 11.30 and 12.30. Allowing 10 minutes per delivery is over generous as in fact the delivery addresses are close together and often there's more than one parcel delivered to the same address. I'm a big fan of DPD, even paying slightly more if there's the option that they deliver rather than a free delivery with another courier.

It's UKMail part of DHL Currently delivering Stop 58..


That's about 4 mins. per Stop. No time window given. I'm expectiong my delivery around 17.00.


They count in STOPS as opposed to DROPS..


I'm not going anywhere until this evening then I'm off to The The Den to see Millwall take on Port Vale.


Foxy.

My order arrived. But driver went into one when I said let me just check it's all there.


7 items ordered. Got 3 items I could see ok and a small box that looked too small.

It was all there but the PVA bottles were smaller than I had expected...


Just got a lot of verbal. "Trust me man.Right. Trust me. Anything missing get back to them.. Don't tell me man.

Anything missing will come tomorrow. Right"


Well I was drop 97. Maybe he had a bad Day.

Same here.


It's really good having such a small delivery slot.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
