Placed an order with Amazon on the 7th February... Normally they deliver by UPS and it arrives in a couple of days...

This time, TNT had a go...

On the 8th,   Picanya                    Shipment arrived at connection point
On the 9th,   Barcelona                 Shipment arrived at connection point
On the 10th, San Pietro Mosezzo   Shipment arrived at connection point
On the 15th, Markopoulo              Shipment in transit
On the 15th, Aradippou                Shipment in transit - Larnaca! So far so good!
On the 16th, Pafos                       Shipment now at depot nearest to delivery address - it has been driven past my house from Larnaca... Amazon promised delivery by 6pm on the 16th
On the 19th, Germasogeia            Shipment arrived at TNT location - It has been driven past my house again from Pafos to Limassol!

It has travelled halfway round the bleddy World and then taken six days (so far) to travel the 1 hour journey from Larnaca to my house!  Banghead

Courier called, will deliver tomorrow morning...

To the wrong fucking address!  cussing:

The unholy alliance of TNT and FedEx have subbed the final delivery to my door tomorrow to a third-party who apparently has delivered to my previous address before and has it on file...

Waiting for DHL to deliver a package from Amazon...

...apparently it was put on the delivery van in Larnaca at 8:39 this morning and still not here at 17:28... Larnaca is an hour away in the car... ::)

What are the chances of my not being in and them being unable to deliver...  cussing:
