Well i phoned M&S again today to discover that my order couldnt be fulfilled because Dave the Monkey is out of stock now so if you haven't had a dispatch email i've give them a phone, the manager that i spoke to cos i was so angry managed to find me one in my local store - the last one, because they lied to me yesterday on the phone since apparently M&S knew yesterday that they couldnt complete my order they gave me £15 in online credit £2.50 of that is cos i had to pay £2.50 more for Dave in store so in the end all sorted as just been to collect him0
