Hi Boomie

We sent ours off last Wednesday and were told around 5 working days, so with Easter we should be looking at the end of this week - will let you know.

All the best

Got them! Postie delivered them this morning which is pretty good going - they only had them 2 working days!

It's fantastic, keep looking at them - especially the bit that says resident!

Yours could be back by Satruday at this rate!

All the best
