@Clint_D March 12th the Mad Red was shipped to Germany. It sat in Chicago until it cleared customs on May 15th. We haven't heard a word since then.
The irony of how frustrated and mad I am about this delay will only add to the story of its travels once round 2 (fingers crossed) begins.

Happy to see that both my parcels finaly got an update yesterday and are both on their way overseas! Looks like they just got held back and where not lost afterall.

Generally speaking DPD are absolutely fantastic, the only problem for me is I sit about halfway around their route and tend to be the first delivery after their 1-hour lunch break. So I can just see them sat there, stuffing their face whilst I wait in great anticipation for my deliveries. It kills me

I've got you beat — my UPS guy lives right down the street from me, so I'm always the very last on his route. I get my packages around 7 or 8PM usually. Brutal waiting!
That said, I don't know why exactly I'm last on the route — it's not like he drives the truck home and parks it in front of his house. He has to take it back. Anyway, I guess just bad luck haha…

@popvulture ouch, they must be sliw days

This is me checking the UPS tracking for the lost and only 4XL 526PJ in existence that I ordered a couple weeks ago.

Yikes!!! Hope it makes the trek!!!!

If you've never had the transmission go out on an F-350 Super Duty while towing a 25 foot trailer and blocking four lanes of traffic in all directions, then the tow not having an inch and 7/8 ball hitch, so you block traffic for over an hour, I highly recommend it. Talk about an exercise in humility.

I am so tired. But I am glad that's over. And they didn't seem too mad about it at work.
How you doing Giles?

I'm doing good thank you, but the new Kayak is using muscles I did not know I had, so I am knackered. But that is part of the reason I got it, to build up the strength in my legs…
I did have a bit of a "discussion" at the public dock yesterday. It was the first time I was landing the thing, so I was a little nervous about remembering everything and not making a complete lash of it. I got out of the kayak on the slipway and a motorboat came in behind me:
"Oi, we are landing there"
"Yeah, so am I and I got here first"
"Well I need to land now"
"I'll only be a few mins, and I did get here before you"etc etc etc
After I got the kayak out, the boat owner came over and was exceedingly nice to me. I think he knew he had been a complete twat. He did not actually say sorry, but did give me some advice on good fishing spots....
-
I love how you say twat
-
Haha yes, it's something special — I dated a British girl for a while and it always cracked me up when she called somebody one. It's all in the pronunciation, too — we yanks tend to pronounce it like "twot" but the Brit "at" usage is way better. They win at the insults.

Haha fantastic — Twats of Endearment, coming to Broadway 2022

I saw a pair of platform Crocs recently. They’re mutating like the virus.
