    One side of the valley is Simpsonsesque and bathed in sunshine, the other is like Gotterdamerung with added Valkyries.

    No helicopters though.

      Though even the cancellation isn't guaranteed to have actually happened; I'll just have to wait and see if I keep getting failed delivery attempts
      Phone them up and give them some tulip.

      They will then delay delivery until you are in.

        No phone number for Amazon Logistics, is there?

        Anyway, sod it - they can take it back. It's not anything I need urgently, so I'll just order again on Thursday. Unless the price has gone up, in which case I'll wait until it goes down again; it does that a lot.

          You phone up Amazon customer services and have a whinge.

          Depending on your whinge they give you a month's free prime membership or a few pounds Amazon voucher.

            Ah, right. Given that I absolutely hate talking on the phone, and it's not something I need urgently or even in much of a rush at all, I don't think I'll bother

            I ordered it now mainly because it was cheap; it's one of those consumable products where the price fluctuates a lot from week to week (or even day to day), so it'll be just as cheap again soon even if it goes up before Thursday

                  I got Mrs MarkyMark to use the Amazon online chat to sort a problem out for me recently.
                  Worked out very well

                  She knows I hate dealing with such things

                      Dinner hasn't really transpired, as a couple of freshly-baked sausage rolls late in the afternoon proved to be quite filling; so I just had a nectarine

                      I have also undertaken the arduous business of cleaning the deep fat fryer, so lovely golden chips will be my reward, as and when I get around to making them
