Well it didn't arrive today so I sent Marsh tackle an email to say if they thought it would be delivered tomorrow. I got a phone call later from them (they tried 3 times while I was out) saying that the delivery firm had said the driver had put a card through the door at 11.16am because no-one was there. Here's a message to the delivery driver "Just because an address doesn't have a shop name on it doesn't mean it isn't one". The muppet is trying to say to say he put a card through a shop WHICH WAS OPEN lol

Dave at March tackle said that the delivery firm had been trying to get hold of the driver all afternoon and couldn't. It sounds like he wanted an afternoon off so didn't deliver the parcels and just said he carded them. Tut tut, that will teach him to think he was delivering to a house where he had a better chance of getting away with it :)

Anyway, they have promised to deliver it tomorrow which is news years eve so that will teach him to take some crafty time off :)

The only annoying thing is I paid £4.95 for first class delivery and the driver slacked off instead of delivering it so I am kinda gutted about that.

While I was waiting for my new fishing gear to arrive I went down to Torquay harbour and picked up a Shakespear 2 rod tripod because I want to do more beach fishing.

It doesn't look like my penn flotation suit is going to arrive today (still not here at 2.40pm). I know it was sent yesterday so the hold up is the delivery firm. Does suck when you pay first class and it doesn't get delivered the following day :(

I really need to join a sea fishing club in Torquay, anyone got any recommendations for me?
