Got my despatch e-mail this morning, but my order is coming by Royal Mail - lucky it's only for my son, and he has enough already so won't notice if this little extra turns up a little late.0

I paid Wednesday teatime, got it at lunchtime. I'm impressed! I haven't had a despatch email yet and the tracking part of JL site shows tracking numbers but no further info. I'm a VERY happy bunny today!They call me Dr Worm... I'm interested in things; I'm not a real doctor but I am a real worm.0

They refunded my delivery charge and as they could access more info on my tracking than i can, i was told my parcel was out for delivery today and Citylink are working 9am-9pm today to try and get parcels delivered. Fingers cross for today... although it's snowing hard atm...0
