Why the hell don't they deliver in the evening when 99% of people are in. I come back and there is a stupid card saying I can pick it up at their depot 20 miles away only up until 6 or rearrange another time when I will be at work. Must be a gap in the market for a company that does evening deliveries?

I suppose the problem with setting up evening deliveries, is that a lot of folk still aren't home! Maybe they're working late, or commuting a long way. Or perhaps they're down the pub, or eating at the local Indian/Chinese restaurant. Or doing an evening class at the local college.Speaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas.

So your first rule in life is to make permies like you. Wow you must be one hell of a brown noser.Last edited by russell; 17 May 2011, 20:50.Comment

They deliver here on Saturdays if you ask or you can get it delivered to a packstation and pick it up anytime.
