Slowlycatchymonkey Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Where's my mattress Pete? Amazon says it was delivered yesterday but it bloody wasn't. Correos tracking is confusing. It says it's delivered but the little line thing at the top isn't completed and I think it also says pending? Correos is the main postal service in Spain right?

I have an equally exciting day sewing, waiting for a parcel to turn up and if it does going to the supermarket cos we have no butter which is obviously a catastrophe for an olive oil avoiding Brit in Spain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't say Entregado......so it's not marked as delivered. But there's a massive delay in post at the moment because bugger all gets done during August, so there's a backlog.

boboneleg Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Back in July were trail riding in a French forest and it was 38c . I had drunk all the water in my camelbak so as soon as we got to the next town we dived straight into the nearest supermarket. We bought a pack of four Solero ice lollies and some cold water, Jim went to walk back outside and I stopped him. We sat on some display garden furniture , stuffed the ice lollies and drunk all the water while sat in the lovely air-conditioned supermarket. Only after we'd finished everything and bought some more water for the camelbaks did we go back outside and get on the bikes. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Boating to the UK now, just had a nice prosciutto and cheese sandwich and will enjoy the view for a while. If I get drunk tonight the plan is to sing songs in a piratey way. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
