Not only can you track their driver online, you can tell them to deliver to a neighbour.

Once they have delivered to a neighbour they take a photo of the front door so you know where it has definitely gone!! 

Very impressed.

Yeah I got a parcel via them the other day and have to agree. The tracking shows you the name of the driver :>

Yep, Darren did a good job :)

Yep, they're the same company/group as DPD.

I filter online stores based on the couriers used - anyone using Interlink/DPD gets considered before the rest.

Peter! I was in your neck of the woods recently, but I think the phone number I have for you is from 2004 or something :D

Probably. I have a bad habit of not transferring numbers. :(

Standing outside East Croydon station and yelling really loudly probably has a better chance of working.

Indeed, the card they left was a DPD card.

Was it anything fun, or was it a bill?

New mouse.

Are you happy with it?

Are you left handed? Not that it'd particularly matter with an ambidextrous design like that. I've been looking for a good (but not wildly priced) left handed mouse for a while. That looks nice n' balanced with a sensible amount of clickable bits.

As Ken said, let us know what it's like.

I use a rather similar-looking Steelseries Sensei which can sometimes be had for cheap. I used to like MS Intellimouse Explorers but they kept breaking down after a couple of years. Hopefully this one lasts longer, it's certainly nice and well reviewed.

What milko said – SteelSeries do various mice in that shape. My ladyfriend has a Kinzu V2, which seems nice if you have small hands. It's a bit flat and small for my liking; the Sensei is better for that, but I didn't really get on with mine very well because I found the thumb buttons far too easy to press accidentally. Mind you I have fat thumbs, so perhaps it won't bother you.

Cheers both, I remember now reading a good sensei review, I like their unfussy style.

I could do with trying one out somewhere to see how it fits my hand as I'm somewhere between a claw and palm grip. I don't get on with tiny mice either.

I think PC world of all places had some steelseries in, you could maybe get a quick hold.

Possibly. He does live on the posh side of London so who knows what services his local pc world offer. Perhaps a little gentle cupping. Maybe a little nuzzle.

He's probably a regular customer

I might be tempted to visit PC World if they offered services like that down here.

(nod) I'll check out our local PC world one lunchtime. You have to have a fondle before making a decision.

Very much YJ, but the PC World I tend to go to is in Slough, very much not posh. Actually, the one nearest my house is a scuzzy bit next to the M4 as well! I send the butler.
