Just had an AF delivery this morning. I was disappointed that AF was out of tinned tuna but everything else I ordered - packets of fruit and nuts (raisins, brasil nuts and almonds), chocolate covered coffee beans, tinned asparagus, Smash, flavoured coffee / ice cream syrups, mango sweets and tomato cous cous - was there. The coffee beans, mango sweets and fruit / nut packets are gorgeous, by the way.

The box was well packed and I got an email the day before saying that delivery was on its way. The turnaround time was faster than the previous two deliveries, so it seems like Dan and his team are working feverishly to get orders out.

My only complaint is the temptation to visit with AF web site with all of the fervour of a monkey on crack!

I ordered on the 13th too, but I doubt I will get a dispatch e-mail as the other courier doesn't seem to do them. Has anyone had a dispatch e-mail from the alternate courier? I only live a couple of hours away so maybe my order will come today. Oooh that would be nice, I will be munching all weekend... :eek:

I ordered on 13th by alternate courier as well - not heard anything - hope it does come today:D (hubby will kill me, no space in the cupboards - still stuffed with beans & spicy sausage, bean & bacon:p).

Fortunately we have eaten a lot of the stuff so that now my overbuying seems reasonable when I look in the garage. However, I'm sort of dreading the curry sauce etc arriving as I need to get some containers from poundland to decant into once I open them- its starting to sound a bit mad.
My kids have had really great packed lunches lately, with all the nuts etc alternating with crisps/flapjacks. When they were younger I packed very wholesome meals, but now they are 16 and 18 they just buy rubbish if they don't have enough sort of healthy sort of nice food.
Eventually because of the variety of things Dan stocks, all the bulk buying becomes ok as you realise you don't have to go out to buy more peanut butter till 2010 for instance,:rotfl:

You received an order from the 16th already?? :eek: Then there is still hope for my order from the 13th coming today... I thought that orders were all going to be in strict chronological order now?
