Wow, gypsygirl!

Your hampers look A-ma-zing!!

I assume you chose the contents of most of them yourself, or were they part of a deal?

NHcompany, pleeeease hurry up with the rest of mine!!!!

They certainly do look amazing, mine didn't come with any bows never mind, they are still fab.

I would love to know as well if you chose them yourself and what deal you got.:)

Neil has done a couple more updates on twitter saying he is going as fast as he can and also blaming a certain poster on here. I can't copy the tweets as on iPad which for some reason not letting me copy but I'm sure someone can repost.

I'm still awaiting my hampers too so fully understanding the frustrations. I'm also ready to pop with baby no 2 so don't really fancy doing a Christmas rush shop for replacement presents- eek!

Gipsygirl, your hampers do look very nice. I notice also that you actually managed to receive the elusive port chutney. Lucky girl!

Personally, I don't think anyone should copy the tweets on here as it would make the poster and the NorfolkHamperCompany as bad as the original poster. Someone needs to take the moral high ground.

I'm not condoning what was said, but some things need to be left to the experts, which anyone who has read the tweets would know what I mean.

It's a good job he's not selling on EBay!

WOW these look fab!:T
:T
If mine look like these I will be DeLiGHTED!!!

Thank you SO MUCH for posting!

While I understand peoples disappointment over delays and agreed deadlines being missed and their frustrations over communication, I am sure that they ARE trying their best to get all the deals out to us.
Although I am aware that they are a company etc etc and have made promise to deliver on a certain date, I am also aware that they are human, a small firm who have obviously been caught off guard by the volume of orders and ARE trying their best to fulfil these orders. I'm pretty sure they didn't and don't want anyone to go away from this disappointed and not recommending them ( although I know some people feel strongly that they won't, as is their perogative).

Personally, I'm prepared to wait patiently for my orders if the quality is as shown in the photos as they look fantastic!. :beer::j

I love the way some of Gipsygirls hampers have all been done up in cellophane with bows at the top.

I think when i order in the new year and YES i will be ordering again. I will ask if i can have some done like that with the hampers open and the contents on display. They look lovely

Totally understand where you are coming from, although as previous tweets added to tread thought those who do not use twitter may want to know what the latest updates were. No malice intended as know the guy is working his socks off.

What will we all have to talk about once the hampers arrive...;)

..... They are only a small company and I wish them well, much larger companies are not fulfilling orders on time either (ordered from Lakeland on Sunday and only dispatched today and only part order.........

I turned to Lakeland when I realised that my order from NH would not arrive in time. I ordered on Monday and it has now been delivered - in time for my relatives to enjoy their gift before they go off on their travels over Christmas. I don't think I could have dealt with another delay.
