ARRIVED TODAY YAY !!
wasnt regtons fault it was the delivery company interlink.
they sent the wrong delivery date and not only that they delivered it at 9am when i was still in bed  and faked my signature and left it in my green storage box (i use for my bin bags to stop foxes and magpies ripping my bin bags up )next to the house which is full of my 1 week ripe bin bags !!
dispite the rather smelly box i am thrilled its arrived in time for tomorrow  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
ps regtons were great when i rang them this morning !!

Also just like to say i had a follow up call from someone at regtons apologising and assuring me they will make a full complaint to interlink for the mess up.id like to say regtons were brilliant and no fault is attributed to them and i would def buy from them again.

All's well that ends well Chantal.  Let's hope tomorrow has the same out come and you find something nice. ;)

Read what you said about strange roads. Got to admit I'm the same. To think I once used to drive through the centre of B'Ham to get to work. When my employers moved to Redditch I had to have 3 trial runs with John before I went on my own. I got there O.K. but on the way back I ended up heading for Stratford, opposite direction. I did over 70 miles that night getting home. ::)

Have you seen that car advert where the young couple are having an argument about directions. He looks like he's sending a text and then a voice message comes on the radio.

'Forgive him he's an idiot.'    Got to love that one, it's great.

when i went to cardiff services last time i took the wrong exit  off the roundabout and ended up at the stadium .luckly it was about 11pm at night when i did the roundabout near the stadium i think i went in every lane going around it !!
i had a nasty experience on a roundabout with some idiot diving in front of me and ever since that if its a roundabout with more than 2 lanes that i dont know my stress levels go through the roof  :-\

It's them stupid staggered round-a-bouts I hate.  Cars and lorries coming from all directions.  What made B'Ham easier. No one was going anywhere, there were that many of them they only moved a foot a minute.
It was a case of  'I dare you to move another foot before I do'  which you had to ignore till you just got your nose in front and stopped any one else from moving.   The bumps were always gentle. :o ::)
