    The Amazon delivery sounds rubbish. Got to admit my ds orders everything for me and we only ever tend to order things with the prime logo.
    Poor dog….and cat. Hope they are both ok and don’t leave you any more little packages for you to clean up 😵‍💫

    As you say delivery from non Amazon sellers are not the best.

    So annoyed I didn’t notice the bag wasn't direct from Amazon. I should’ve bought it from the little boutique and supported a local business, well local to my friend anyway.

  • I try to look for prime as I’ve been caught out with other sellers too. What is it with Hermes saying they’ve tried to deliver when it’s clearly lost? I have had my money back before and then the item has turned up…I told Amazon, but explained they’d have to pick it up and they just said keep it…so I hope you get a win like that.

    Hope the ankle sorts itself quickly. They could do with sending you home with a manual of random pains and symptoms after bone work - so far my repaired arm bone has been good as gold but from time to time the scar nudges me. As far as I can tell that's either when I'm not using it enough or (rarely) when I use it too much. But as I say, they forgot to supply me with a manual.

    Does the change in humidity affect your ankle? It's been oppressively humid up here. Alternatively, could the bone be growing still?
