I only managed to get so far with mine (in the house) before ‘she’ threw a wobbly and made me take it apart again (too cold in my workshop today). Anyway, I did get your problematic bit done but it was very fiddly. I did it by putting the washer on and using that to push ‘side-on’ to the bolt...

Box looks like it’s been in a couple of rounds with Tyson AND has obviously been opened previously and then re-sellotaped BUT having just opened it up fully the polystyrene ‘trays’ look intact so it may be ok. Too cold out and in the workshop so going to put it together in the house so will let...

Wait for it…………have a guess what I’ve got?

That’s a really good idea 👍 Couldn‘t you add a category for NON-deliveries?

Yes, I’ve been thinking about it. My problem is that I already have a small cheap and cheerful bandsaw (which was really my first experience with anything other than a Table/chop saw) and even though its ‘ok’ for my needs, this bl**dy forum got me excited about treating myself with something...

Am I tempting fate by writing this? sat here reading the latest chapter in the saga and, lo and behold, I get a text from XDP…..they’re supposedly going to make their 3rd, and final, attempt to deliver today at 12-2pm. I don’t hold out much hope 😥 I’ve also had an email from Aldi telling me...

Sorry, couldn’t resist….

Hi, I’ve just left a nice trustpilot review (thanks for that)…I’ll try the Aldi review link later. 👍

Hi, Thanks for this. That number is the one I’ve already tried…..if this wasn’t so frustrating it would be laughable.

I am f*cking fuming! An hour ago, and out of the blue, I received another email from XDP stating that they’ve been here to try and deliver for a second time. They stated no one was in so left a card. I’ve been here all the time and can see the front gate. No one‘s been (again). Phoned Aldi...

Hmm, I’m all for constructive debate but not one that has the appearance of a rabbit hole 🤔 All I’ll say (and this is from professional experiences and personal opinion) is that I have more than a little contempt for certain damp-proof injection companies…… Re the RICS (and Mr Bonaface’s...

no no no no no………two pieces of toast with melted butter, crack the tin slightly then drizzle the olive oil all over the toast where it will soak right in then spread the mackerel…….🤤🤤🤤🤤

Yep, I’d go along with that, no issue with that statement at all. 👍 I’ve had 40 yrs of construction experience, some of which as a building surveyor. I’ve also worked with some dubious characters who didn’t know enough ‘stuff’ to be given the ability to diagnose. I don’t even mind opinions as...

Just noticed, by accident, that I’ve received an email from xdp stating that they’ve 1. JUST tried to deliver 2. as per agreed delivery slot, 3. got no answer and so have left a card……hmmmmm…… three things wrong there….1. I’m sat here (have been about since about 8am) and can see the front door...

+ another for Autoaid 👍 I initially read about them on Martin Lewis’ site several years ago and joined them because of low cost and the recommendations of many others who’d written about them. At that time you had to pay for the recovery yourself, then reclaim the monies…..used this system...

….in your opinion….

Had my neighbour on alert yesterday as I wasn’t going to be in for the allotted XPD time slot and also rushed home just in case…..sat here now (next day) all alone and bandsaw-less 🥲 I’ve also been wondering whether or not any damage could have been prior to xpd taking stock themselves? Either...

I use it (and banggood) continually. I’ve noted in other posts that it’s like Xmas here endless times a year…..small packages they may be but that matters not 😀

Brill….thanks for the reminder! I’m a terror for buying loads of little things (cheap) from China and so it’s like Xmas here when they arrive in little packets….I get excited opening them as I can never remember what I’ve bought. She rolls here eyes every time. As others have already pointed...
