Well, as expected, parcel arrived while I was out walking the dogs this morning.
As it's royal mail they only try to deliver once, after that you have to go pick it up from the local depot.
As it happens our local royal mail depot usually only opens between 7-11am.
But on a wednesday it's open ntill 20:00.
I've just phoned them and should be able to pick up parcel tonight.

More later :-)
