I have a note through the door saying a neighbour has taken in a package for me, but she is not at home at present so I don't know whether it is da bird or other stuff I am expecting. Will update you when I get it ... I love my new neighbours, they are all so helpful (read politely nosy) about my larger post items. So far number 11, number 15 and number 17 have taken in parcels for me  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: THink they just want to check out the new neighbour?

Nope, nothing here either.  Looking on the bright side - there'll be so much more time to play with them on Friday night rather than tonight!   ;D

Ahhh it has changed then just took this off the royal mail site

Special Delivery™ 9.00am
Guaranteed delivery by 9.00am  From £9.35

Special Delivery™ Next Day
Guaranteed delivery next day  From £4.30

First Class
Quick and easy to use 1-2 days From 34p

Second Class
For when time isn't important 3+ days From 24p

Standard Parcels
For non-urgent parcels 3+ days From £3.85

So if you actually want something to get there the next day, it would cost from £4.30. Instead of 1st class of from 34p!!!!

What a rip off it is now!!

The 2nd order took longer cause bloomin Uk customs stopped it and charged £4.26 vat but also on top was a bloomin Post office international clearance charge of £8!!!  >:(  Gotta to find out how to or if i can avoid that for future orders.

We will still sell them at £4.99 plus £1.99 uk Postage and packing each and out of each one £1.54 will go to our rescue fund.

The second order will be with me tomorrow , they got stuck at UK customs for 4 days  >:( and they have charged 49p each on import vat  for them so instead of £2.03 (41%) going to our rescue fund for each £1.54 will be but that's still a good profit (32 %) made for each one sold.

i will post out 1st class to all below  ;D Let us know if they like da birds  ;D

Tan, do you still have 1 left.  If yes, please can I order one.  Pepper only lost 300 grms in weight so far and has another 1.5kg to go.  Reckon it will help with her slimming regime (I hope).

Hi Tan

I've just returned from a couple of days at my 85 year old auntie's in the country in N Ireland and she has 1 or 2 furbabes that would love Da Bird especially one little fella that I took a particular shine to. Could you put me down for 1 more from third order?  I'll email you her address to send it direct.

How's yours coming along Helen? Boys must be getting impatient! :evillaugh:

I have 8 'normal' rolls and have calculated that the Da Bird tube will make 5 plus a slightly smaller one so just need 1 more  :wow: Kitchen roll is almost finished courtesy of Riley's water bowl knocking over fetish so shouldn't be long now  ;D
