Today I am battling the perfume shop & royal mail. I returned a parcel at the start of Jan, a bottle of perfume for DD that was the wrong one. Heard nothing from them despite emailing several times. Royal mail says parcel held at sorting office as unable to deliver (delivery address not accepting deliveries!) No new tracking info since 12/1. Now tried to claim compensation as getting nowhere with perfume shop but can't as over 30 days since posting. Very, very frustrating. Rang royal mail, 60 + min wait to speak to someone so eventually found an email address and will see if they can send the parcel back to me but not very hopeful. What a nightmare. It was £50 so I'm not giving up despite DH saying it might be a lost cause. If I get it back I can return in person to a shop as returns are within 90 days - if it turns up in time that is. Grrrrrr.

@Lucielle tea was really good if I do say so myself. I found some red shrimp in the freezer and fried up in garlic & paprika butter to top my pasta, they were delicious and from @aldi I think. Rest of the family had with chicken as planned and it was a hit.

Tonight's dinner is less fancy; egg, chips & beans with buttered white bread. A real northern nostalgic tea but good for when the fridge is bare!
