    Got an email a few minutes ago, it is at the collection point, will be collecting on the way home.

    Surely you could justify a day off work to open the box? :D:D

    About 10 days ago, I ordered a pair of pedals from Merlin Cycles.
    I asked today, why they were delayed. I was told they were in Customs, awaiting clearance, In America.
    I wasn't expecting Brexit to be so complicated.

    I made two separate orders from Wiggle this week. Both took 2 days to arrive. Happy days!

    A Steam Cleaner from Black and Decker. This was a huge disappointment. I filled in a form 2 months ago and the website refused to acknowledge the Irish address. I sent an email and they said Id have to uses snail mail so I didn't bother. Apparently it finally went through.

    This is only slightly better than the time two huge boxes arrived in work addressed to me with Alpina written on the side. I had just returned a frame to Dolan who use Alpina kit. I thought someone had messed up and I was getting multiple bikes. Turns out Alpina is a company in central Europe who supply safety cabinets and they shipped straight to me rather than through the distributor I ordered through.

    Very disappointed.

    Unless the package has come from Pat Mustard, is this really that much of an issue? I'd love to get random free stuff delivered.

    You don't hear about Pat for ages and then...

    I'm personally very satisfied it's a stream cleaner! They look so satisfying to use. I've wanted one ever since I found out they existed.

    The wife pointed this out recently when Quintana was on camera with his jersey zipped down a bit - which made it look even more like what it does. Once she said it, I can't un-see it so leave it to your imagination (helped by a recent post in ylyl here)....

    Market appeal to Freds, newbies and those who have had abuse thrown at them by regular posters on boards? :D

    Don't know if it's the Silver/Chrome & Gum wall's combo but it looks like something from the 80's
