Today is not turning out to be a very good day so far! I've had my boy home from Rockley since last Wednesday and due to a complete lack of organisation and Mole Valley Farmers being closed on bank holiday Tuesday I've been struggling to get him his barefoot supplements.

So I managed to order the mag ox from another outlet near me, this morning I get a call to say the magnesium is in stock so I drive (40 mins) to get it to find that the helpful girl thought I needed magnesium calmers and mine actually hasn't arrived yet. Get home to find Parcel Force have ignored my written request to leave the other supplements in my porch, with a signature to say I accept all responsibility and have driven off with my supplements. I've called 4 times now and not managed to get through to the local depot but been promised someone will call back so I can meet the driver somewhere. Not so much as a call back yet. Depot is over an hour away and I have to juggle school run and rush hour traffic as well as their opening times too.

So fed up, not to mention worried that we've now been without the stuff since last Wednesday morning. Why
 
Blooming phone posted too soon!

Why did I ever think getting the stuff was going to be simple?

Really feel the need to scream now!
 
I ordered micronised linseed from my feed merchant only for them to deliver Linseed Lozengers complete with lots of added sugar!!

So we now do what everyone else does and order from Charnwood Milling!

Arrrgh!

Forget the Mag Calmer just open a large bottle of wine;-))
 
Liking the wine idea! I suppose I've been quite lucky really since I've managed to get suppliers locally for the linseed, coolstance copra and mag ox (when it finally gets there) so all I've had to get online or through the post has been the pro balance. Just wish I hadn't had to do the wasted journey this morning and miss my delivery!

Luckily have just heard from Parcel Force and pro balance is going to be left at my local post office before 5pm! I'm finally getting somewhere!

Still going to drink the wine though! ;)
