I too hate tardiness but where are we to stand on earliness?

Occasionally I will get a supermarket to deliver.  Today was such a day as I needed 25 tins of baked beans, 10 bags of flour, 5 of sugar and several kilos of dried fruit.  Oh yes my dears the season of the Christmas cake is upon us. evil:  A 'slot' was booked for between 5 and 7pm.  It arrived at 4.45.

I will not mention the phone call from the delivery man asking me for directions for house number 50. I don't live there but I resisted the temptation to tell him. angel1
