Tesco failed to deliver again yesterday evening. I'm now £10 better off having complained via WhatsApp. I managed to get a new delivery date for tomorrow evening, so it's not exactly a disaster from my point of view. ;)


Tesco has let me down again. My pre-Christmas order and they got to the delivery before me (one street away) and then b*ggered off up the motorway. I've managed to book another slot for Tuesday, but the slot is more expensive. My displeasure has been voiced to Tesco, we'll see how they appologise. - Not a happy shopper today!

I was compensated Margaret, but it was done very begrudgingly and with a veiled warning that they wouldn't necessarily compensate me for future delivery failures! I still can't get hold of the ar$ehole at the top, he's surrounded himself a muppet line that it's impossible to breakthrough.

That seems to happen a lot from that publication group.

I have no idea, Margaret. I sincerely hope he's OK.

The website has been all over the place recently, I've not been able to use it.

It's appeared in a different format, almost like the old linear chat boards. If it isn't easy to post, I have other things to waste my time on.

I agree Rebbonk. We can't be hanging around and not be notified of what's happening to the forum. Its had its day.
though I do hope nothing untoward has happened to Lex.

The problem seems to come and go. I post when I can, but am often faced with grey boxes that won't accept text.

Is it possible to survive the recent Indian Air plane disaster?
As we hear in the news there was one survivor.

Can anyone believe there could be any survivors on that Indian plane disaster?

Certainly a very lucky man! I can't even begin to think how he feels (survivor's guilt etc.) or what future traumas (PTSD etc.) he'll face, but I sincerely wish him well.

I can't find a 10amp fuse anywhere in town nor locally.
Our toaster had a 10amp fuse , now I can't use it since the fuse went.
So from now on any toaster I buy, I'll make sure it doesn't require a 10amp fuse.
