I am still writing this entry to this Group Build as the model I was hoping to build for it will not be delivered until Tuesday, at the earliest. It's the usual suspects as couriers, EVERI, who lose parcels and "run out of time" for deliveries while it is still late afternoon. So anyway, a written entry for me this year with only the basic idea behind it in my head before the start of the build.

My experience with them has led to me trying to avoid retailers who use EVRI, although they will now deliver to my local PO, but I'd rather pay a little extra and have Royal Mail deliver it.
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Funny how a simple idea can grow arms and legs. I am finding that I am haveing to dive deeper and deeper into research of what happened at the start of WW2

Mind you, RM have their moments. Allegedly they "delivered" a book to my house, proudly showing the picture on their website when I did the usual tracking stuff. Problem is, the white UPVC door that's clearly in it is neither the brown outer or green inner of my house!  :banghead:

I agree that their sense of direction can be off. The sense of timing can be off too. I have a parcel on its way to me, last seen at the Jubilee Sorting Depot, not far from Heathrow on Friday. The app was saying they intended to deliver it yesterday  :rolleyes: , yeah right  :banghead: No help that today the app is down for upgrades, so I shall be watching the app quite often tomorrow when at work.

RM took over three WEEKS to send a small First Class parcel from the Wooksta in the Newcastle area to me in Kettering!  :banghead:

I could have walked that trip in that time!
