I forgot to
mention – I ordered the lawnmower previously referred to online as the shop (I’ll
call it shop and not ‘store’ thank you) didn’t have any of the most suitable model
in stock - except on display of course. This is the
good old fashioned routine I’m used to...But order online by 6pm and they
guarantee delivery the next day. I raced
home from the shop and got the order in at 5.48 on the Wednesday afternoon. By 7pm on Thursday the thing hadn’t arrived
so I called their customer helpline (which was actually still open) to find out what had happened. I was told that really I needed to have
ordered it a couple of hours earlier for next day delivery as it takes a while
for them to process the order.
So...if you’re
ordering from B&Q just nip over to wherever they’re based and find out how
much before the 6pm cut-off point is the real life cut-off point that's not the advertised cut-off point. Or stay in all day the day after the one they
say they’re going to deliver on...
I would make some quip suggesting violent
retribution but the police do their policing via the internet now and their
sense of proportion was taken away in government cuts...So I won’t.
