(For the first episode of this Saga, see my 4th November Journal).
Having had my money back, I re-ordered the book I wanted, only this time I didn't have it delivered to my place, but to the Post Office.
Fingers crossed for a couple of days, and then...
Tah dah! I received an email :
"Your package has arrived at the delivery point you chose. Please collect it before the day before November 26th. (sic)
Here are the opening hours of the delivery point:
Mondays to Fridays 9:00 - 12:15 ; 13:30 - 18:00
Saturdays 9:00 - 12:15
Sundays 7:30 - 12:00 ; 13:00 - 19:00"
Mmh, I'm pretty sure the Post Office is not (*very* not) open on Sundays, but thanks for the "help", Nileriver...
So I left work a little earlier than my usual 6pm, and picked my package.
And it wasn't lost, or stolen, or even damaged in any way !
Hurray !

pebblederook-The old guy wearing surfer beads- what does he think he looks like? Posted Nov 14, 2014
I think everyone is conditioned by experience. All I can say is that in five years living in Bretagne, La Poste, and the ladies who deliver to me in their yellow vans, always with a smile for the odd looking Englishman, have been superb.
