We went into a few shops this fternoon, mainly to buy two birthday presents. Both of us found it stressful - folk just not giving space - worse was two shop assistants in Wilkos - literally kept standing right next to me. Will be sticking to on-line from now on.

Well, looks like I may have been on an unlucky run. Here's looking for better times, I dont do that much online shopping anyway.

I just had my new electric shaver delivered from Shavers UK.. It was only ordered on Thursday, so no complaints.
ChainReaction stuff seems to be taking a little longer than usual, but 4 days instead of 2 from Belfast is still pretty good.

Almost everything i've ordered during lockdown and before that has always turned up on time. I think the postal delivery chaps and chapesses do a remarkable job/service!

On the up, my wife ordered a new mobile phone, arrived within 24 hours of the supplier doing the usual contract setup
My deliveries have not been as stated for quite a while. Often earlier than stated, sometimes later.
The emails occasionally arrive after the stuff has turned up, especially Suttons Seeds!!
T'other week, I got a refund of a couple of ££ from Am azon as my package was later than quoted. Strange, as that's only happened once (the refund, not the late delivery)
Let's not forget that the couriers and posties have been working all through lockdown to supply us with the often non-essential goodies we can't buy in shops!

The post around my way is very hit and miss at the moment. A pair of cable cutters failed to turn up, a new blade for my bow saw turned up 5 days early, and my brother has sent me some photographs two weeks ago, I'm still waiting.
One local sorting office closed last year, so the workload is now split with the others.

I have suffered with late deliveries, strangely just in the last three weeks. 3 separate orders all on next day with extra payment, all arrived over a week late. No reply from Wiggle to my query's until two weeks later, when they refunded the extra next day delivery costs for all three lates.
My gripe is, why keep the option for next day delivery if they can't under the circumstances deliver next day, people order and pay for next day delivery for a reason.

Ordered a door from B&Q. Text yesterday from DX advising delivery between 07.30 and 18.00 with “on-line tracking”. No delivery. Checked the tracking again this morning ...
