I find this happens with almost anything I order from UK mainland that is sent via courier. For some reason it seems no company left hand has a clue about the right hand. Almost all instances they send it "next day courier delivery" you then discover that the courier company used doesn't actually operate over here, this means it is palmed off onto a local courier company in northern ireland who have to first collect the package from Belfast docks in a 40f trailer. This means the package doesn't even get looked at until the next morning whereby it is placed in their own delivery schedule.

All in all I find it adds 2-3 days onto a "next day" service. Generally where ever possible now I simply request it to be have a couple of stamps on and put in RM hands, sure it may still take a few days but they at least don't charge obscene money for a service that is impossible.

I see it is a mixed opinion when you type "Landrovers are..."  You may not like the first choice!

Just as I was about to contact my credit card!

Yodel delivered today! Dispatched 4/1/12 arrived 1/2/12!!!!

The base has two small dents in it, but I'll live with those rather than deal with yodel/millets.

Never again, should have just bought a trangia for an extra 17 quid off amazon.
