    Hello mum :D

    It's far too easy to use with next day delivery and the cheapest prices. If an independent could offer the same service I would use them. But when it's pounds more and takes about a week longer to get here it isn't worth it.

    What decided you to contact Amazon given that it isn’t one of their boxes?

    ha ha funny and true, also the stress of the Russian roulette of who as got your parcel, its covid and you still miss them somehow,or they knock that 1 minute in day you went for a dump,when the emotional stress of holding it in 5 hours got too much
