Started young, and still going.
Morning all.
It's trying to get light, but it will be another grey day here.
Sainsbury's are delivering the weekly goodies between 9 and 10.
MrsP is off to work, she has been asked to do a couple of shifts this week to cover the nurse who took over from her when she "retired ", she is doing a couple more next week also.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I am here. Another sleepless night for me.
11 deg abs dry at the moment but we had a bit of rain overnight.
Stay safe peeps

Thanks for mentioning that bird I.D. app Mo. I've downloaded it and it's excellent 👍

I was quite impressed too. I like the way it highlights birds you heard previously in yellow every time it hears them again so it’s good for learning the calls.

Morning all
Tell me how this works.
I ordered a hydraulic motorcycle work bench - £650 off Ebay from a reputable company - with a voucher for an extra £75 off.
It's a very heavy item and would be delivered by 'other courier' today or tomorrow.
Was told it needed signing for, in case of damage, and would be a kerbside delivery only.
So.....we went out yesterday lunchtime, instead of going today, came back full of cider and pasties and had an afternoon nap, didn't check around the grounds when we got back.
Woke up this morning, checked our cctv and there was a large wooden box by the side of my caravan.
It had been delivered yesterday at 13.30.
No notification, email or text. Still showing 'out for delivery Wed or Thursday' on Ebay.
Mixed feelings - glad that they delivered it up our driveway but miffed that I'd cancelled today's trip to meet our mates.

I would flag it with the company that you bought it from
after all - it is was done as needing to be signed for then if you said it had never been delivered and wanted a refund then they would be screwed!
Sounds like a delivery driver not wanting to waste time!
at least the company need to know!
