Impressed with Royal Mail (for a change)

[gothic]

I'm quite staggered! I ordered myself a (very very) late Christmas present of an Apple iPad.
I ordered it yesterday (Monday 23rd) at 8.15PM I got the notification email at 9.05PM that it had been received by Preston MC at 9.00PM
About ten munutes ago I got the email (Tuesday 24th) that it is out for delivery!
WOW

Well don't you go opening it, Christmas is tomorrow

I'd reserve judgement until you know they've not delivered you a food processor in error!

 

[Marianna]

And that they've delivered to the correct address.

Arrived in good time and in perfect order

Arrived in good time and in perfect order

You can never have enough food mixers

Royal Mail is an enigma! You post 2 cards, 1 going 20 miles away and one going 300 miles away, the 300 one arrives the next day and the 20 arrives 2 weeks later!
It like fishing, according to Gordon, you're on edge all the time, anything could happen at any minute! Will it arrive or disappear into the ether like the odd socks never to be seen again or disappear into the tardis to spring up in the distant future! Who needs suspense films when you have Royal Mail?
