    That said their email is dire. It is not possible to make the tracking work with the info they provide, and nor do they even provide an easy DPD website link.

    Definitely a bit shite.

    My bad. I went to the USA DPD website by mistake. Sorry Bella! But nonetheless they should provide the tracking link, otherwise I would not have made that mistake.

    Should arrive between 12 and 1. Really small window. Excellent.

    My service was excellent, I didn't check the tracking info website they just told me it was coming the next day by email, then I got a text from DPD with a time slot, which they were bang in the middle of. Very well packed too.

    I would definitely use them again, but it was the service I got prior to ordering that impressed me the most. Nothing was too much trouble, even when I changed my order.

    Apart from the small tracking hiccup all good I agree. The 930g of junk beans is nice I nearly went out to get some trash beans TBH. Glad I didn't.

    Not into Sambuca, as I don't like the taste of aniseed.

    Marco.
    Cool! Hope you like it.

    A couple of hints:
    - don't make the frozen cubes too big, as they will only be half-melted before the Baileys has been downed, requiring a top-up....quick way to drain the bottle
    - to avoid Justin's wide-awake drunk syndrome, make it with decaf...I used some inexpensive pre-ground decaf espresso from our local Italian grocer...tasted great.

    PS -- that Merlyn looks like good stuff! Did a search, but not to be found in these parts. I guess I have to come to Wales if I want a taste
