Royal Mail, or to be exact Parcel Force. Ordered a few things on Monday paying for next day delivery. Two items were on DPD and three on PF.
DPD stuff arrived 1052 yesterday, all I got from PF was a text saying it had been sent to the wrong delivery depot in Aldershot. Email this morning saying it won't now be delivered until tomorrow and its in Nottingham.
How did it only get from Aldershot to Nottingham overnight and how is it taking them 3 days to get it to Scotland from Guilford (where it originated) on PF24 service?
No apologies in either the text or email though, brilliant customer relations.
They really are a useless bunch. One job, that's all they have, and they are crap even at that.
Only the second time since April I have used them and last time the item also mysteriously made its way to the wrong delivery office. Luckily it was just Alloa and not Dunfermline so same day albeit 8pm it was delivered.
Just useless, can't say that enough about them.

I doubt that even Saatchi and Saatchi could do a good PR job on wasps

Assuming you're refering to yellow jackets, you should read up about them, you may be surprised.
They are extremely social animals.
I got stung on the neck last Saturday, purely because I was too close to their nest.
The one that got me was merely protecting it's own home/family.

I seem to have caught another bug despite only recovering from a cold/cough a week ago. It's summer for flip's sake!

Very itchy mosquito bites on my legs.
Thank goodness for hydrocortisone cream ðŸ‘
Must remember to put on the repellent before tomorrow's round.

Clothing sizes
The Boy splashed out on a hoodie from a YouTube channel.
Ordered a medium as he's, well, medium
It arrived today.
Holy Moly I'd hate to see the XXL size...
This so called medium fits me....and anyone who knows me knows damn well that I'm not a medium in any language.
So it's got to go back.
Trouble is..it's a limited edition and they've sold out...
One pissed off teenager in the house at the moment...

Clothing sizes are a constant bug bear. I'm a 34 inch waist but this year I've had to buy 36" trousers from Next I think it was, and shorts from Costco made by '32 Degrees' in a 32". Also shoes/football sizes I seem to vary between 10 and 10.5, plus I've had 11 in trainers in the past. Why isn't a size just definitively correct? It makes no sense to me. For trousers of different waist sizes to fit, someone has to be measuring wrongly.

Agree. Whatever ecological side-effect on the world there would be to wasps ceasing to exist, I would gladly take the hit.
Weather forcastes..... again.
looked at the forcaste this morning for Nairn.. 90% rain all morning. looked at the webscam bright and sunny.. so went over, only 4 of us turned up due to the forecast, went out quite a nice morning an not so much as drop of rain all the way round.. we looked at the forcast for all the weather apps and all said the same... its was raining according to them
better off just looking out the window

Radio 2. Firstly when it's school holidays pretty much every main daytime presenter is off too...what business would allow all it's major staff to be off at the same time? Gary whoever it is filling in for Ken Bruce totally ruined Popmaster this morning which irritated me more than the presenters on holiday irritation! Irritated from Cambs...
On a bright note, I thought at the time at least I'd be able to vent on here!

In your part of Scotland do the Moray Firth and the mountains not create your own little micro-climate, and that could vary hugely from what's around?
