My new phone is on it’s way.
I ordered a nice shiny new phone yesterday to replace my aging K750i, reassured by the promise of next-day delivery I opted to pay extra for Saturday morning delivery as I was guaranteed to be in then and it gave them an extra day to sort things out.
I should have been slightly concerned when the order never appeared on my account, but I was still getting emails saying it was being dealt with, however I’ve just had a cryptic email which after telling me what to do about returning faulty handsets, seems to say that rather than deliver when they said they could, they might send it within 5 working days if I’m lucky. Time to cancel the order and go elsewhere I think.

At least they can’t lose it.
Why do couriers seem so adverse to knocking on the neigbours doors?

Will they leave it with a neighbour, or will I have to get up tomorrow morning to drive to Bristol? Can you cope with the excitement?
Well, there’s nothing else to write about so you’ll have to make do with this.

I just ordered some audio tweaking bits from a company up north partly because they were cheap, but mainly because they said they used DHL for deliveries, and the DHL depot is just round the corner.
Within 45 minutes of placing the order it’d already been dispatched which is great, execept they’ve sent it out with City Link which almost certainly means a trip into Bristol to collect it. Fuckwits.
It must be Christmas.
