Both items had been collected from us in Edinburgh, held at the collection depot, one was sent to a hub in Hinckley, it was then sent back to the delivery depot in Uddingston whilst the other followed the same path a day later, item 1 was delivered at 3 yesterday whilst item 2 is out for delivery today, that's 2 journeys of nearly 620 miles for 2 parcels that had to be delivered from my office in Edinburgh to East Kilbride, approx 42 miles.:rolleyes:
