    afternoon ladies

    I was expecting my del yesterday but it didnt turn up. Have checked on the net and it says redieved by carrier.How long should i wait before i phone and ask where it is. (order was put in on correct day).
    Hope everyone is ok
    I would ring them now as well.
    My last order was supposed to be on a Friday, and I didn't get it until the Tuesday as it was a different driver and he couldn't find the address. Really frustrating as I like to deliver over the weekend as I work so much during the week and just don't have the time to mess about!

  • I got my missing items today. Came in the usual post with royal mail!

    I'm having really trouble getting a mineral foundation in the right colour for my customer's skin tone. She's fair but the ivory looks too light, so she went for the next one on the colour chart which was bisque, but when it came it was far too dark. So went for next one (almond) and that's no better, still way too dark for her. I'm medium tone skin wise and I couldn't wear either of them either, just too dark! Think she might end up cancelling the order if I can't suggest something else... any ideas? Has anyone tried the ivory and is it really light?

    Thanks x
  • hello!

    i am here - waiting for avon delivery!!!! wish he would hurry up as i want to go to the plumbing shop!!

    WOW - bet you can't wait :p

    Am i this board's first casualty - injured in the line of duty :rolleyes: Typing this with my left hand as the right is in a splint. Nearly at my front door after doing a delivery, when i slipped (on dog poo, i think) and went A over T. I could advertise all the eyeshadow colours without resorting to chemical enhancement :D Sum total is 1 very black (and blue, and red, and purple...) eye; a very swollen wrist; a shoulder which doesn't want to work at all; 3 cuts around the eye - 1 very deep, so 10 steri-strips; and assorted nicks and bruises..............4 hrs in A&E last night - not the best evening i've ever had.

    Do you think i can sue someone as there doesn't seem to be any such thing as an accident these days :p
