Another rant coming .... forgive me
Online order saga continues ......
Phoned up at lunchtime (company 1) and said I was confused as the order was cancelled last Friday but I'd got notification from the courier it was coming today ..... guy confirmed it was cancelled & said he'd email to confirm refund
He also said I was the 2nd person today so obviously something's gone wrong somewhere as they're automated messages .....
So ... 1/2 an hour later - got a text from courier saying it was arriving between 4:20 and 5:20 ......
Got home and ..... it's beeping well in the garage :mad: AND I've got the email confirming the order's been cancelled and a refund issued
MEANTIME, company 2 (who I've ordered from loads & always deliver quickly) haven't yet sent a dispatch notice ..... :mad:

Still collect them - if you don't use them I know any rescue would be really grateful for them (and they have been paid for so .....
I must go up to the local shelter - have been meaning to ring and ask if they could use spare stuff left from the last vets so glad to hear they will also have a huge litter tray that could go to them now I am converted to Cleansteps.
Beanie, here's the link for the P@H vets plan. http://www.companioncare.co.uk/special-offers.html?offer=2841
They won't put their prices online, only in the store, but IIRC it worked out to about £50 for the year's treatments once you costed the vaccinations and an extra consultation. It may not be the very cheapest option but I like the principle and would use that vets anyway, so am supporting it. I would point out that the 'perks' are one off vouchers though, not throughout the year.
I must get little mog's claws trimmed as I'm sure they are too long... she's not going to like it :eek:

Very quickly ..... very stressed ......
Managed to cancel 2nd online order :T - tried phoning the 1st lot (3 times) and couldn't get through so will wait for them to contact me!
Anyway ...... Stressed to the hilt - have no idea what I'm going to do
I'm having to bring Mia home she's taken to attacking my pal & her son AND peeing everywhere (which she's never ever done before) .....
Short term (as not much time to sort anything by Saturday) - I'm going to have to clear out the spare room & put her in there ...... long term who knows:eek:
Really disappointed - thought she'd settle & love having 1-2-1 attention
Upset for all 3 of them - Archie's come out his shell so much in the past fortnight & its been lovely to see the "old him" reappear - worried how he'll cope:(
He's also only been going out for a couple of hours from when I get up to go to work - so he's obviously been staying out all day to avoid her .....
One of these days I've write something positive on here
Maybe it's good to get all the carp out the way so I can start afresh next year :rotfl:Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)
