Default Delivery?

I was expecting a delivery today from The Spider Shop but am not sure how they will be delivered. I'm sure when my blondi arrived my mother (who waited in to sign for it) said it came with the normal postie in his bag with the normal letters!

Today its the misses' turn to wait in for me but she has just rang to tell me the normal postie has already been. Does this mean they wont be delivered today or is there a chance another postie will be around at some point in a van delivering parcells?

I know i sound a bit impatient but the misses has loads to do today so if i know they wont be arriving today then she can go and do her stuff...obviously if theres a chance they will be delivered in a van then she will have to wait.

Ta,
Gary.

Are you able to contact Spider Shop to check how it was packaged and when it was sent out?

Yeah i could but i dont want to sound impatient

I'm sure loads of people on here have had things delivered so was just wondering if anyone has ever noticed if they always come with the normal post or if they sometimes come on a seperate van...?

I wouldnt call following up on the welfare of your animal impatient. All i'd ask is how it was sent out, and if it is courier ask for a tracking number.

Well going on past experience of parcells arriving i know the van tends to come aorund my street later in the morning...so ill hold out until lunch time.

I'm not worried about the welfare of the animals just yet, was only asking if there was a chance it could come on the van. If they never come on the van they i would have considered ringing up...now i know they can, ill wait a bit longer.

Thanks all.

It'll come in a RM van but sometimes my postie will come back later with parcels if he wasn't taking the van around or didn't have enough space to carry them.... it should be there before 1pm though.
