Nothing in Aylesbury this morning, no sign of a Fed Ex truck anywhere and no call from my wife to say its arrived so far.

Perhaps Mr Fed Ex is heading north with a batch of CDs for those northern NPGMC members!

What makes it more frustrating is that a guy where I work receive dhis yesterday! If Mr Fed Ex was in the area, where's he gone with mine!?

I really don't understand why some people in Europe receive it and others not. I mean, Germany for example isn't that big.

See my post at http://www.prince.org/msg...msg_377273.
It's just me thinking about the distribution of ONAL but might explain a little bit.

Where I live we only get one delivery, first thing in the morning. Is this definitely coming by Fedex and not Royal Mail? So it might be delivered later in the day?

I hope the Fedex guys know how to get into the building, or I'm never going to see this parcel!

Yes, the Fedex guy will need to know where to go.
sigh I live in a tiny village in the middle of nowhere. No street names or anything to go buy. I think I'll have to stick a neon sign in my window to help the Fedex guy out. 'PARCEL FROM NPGMC WANTED HERE!'.

Hmmm. I hope you'll ever get your CD's.
Even WITH streat names they are unable to locate my address (at least UPS did that once and also funked up the customs payment thingie; even our beloved PTT once returned a parcel intended for my address as 'not picked up'...) which is in the centre of a nice, not too big town.

Ho hum. Another CD-less, Fed-Ex Card-less day here in Kent.

This is beginning to get on my tits now. To the best of my knowledge Fed-Ex don't do saturdays so if it doesn't appear on Friday it misses the Dec 9th deadline and I'l be one hot cross bunny.
All of my hang-ups have gone. How I wish you felt the same.

I mailed NPGMC and they told me that it will NOT be in the shops on Dec 9th, this is what they said-
"Hello
Shipping is taking place right now. And it will not b in shops on Monday"

Can't somebody say something positive about Fed Ex? All I hear is "unable to locate address" and thinks like that...sigh

Is there any FEDex building in the Hertfordshire area?? Or Hammersmith since I spend most of my life there working from 9-5!!


I live in Hertford in Hertfordshire. No ONA live yet, hopefully tomorrow. Anyway, the point of posting is to say that any past orders I have made from the US, via Fedex, have always been delivered by Securicor out of their depot at London Colney.

Maybe we should stop looking for Fedex vans and setup a base camp outside the Securicor depot? Now surely that would bring Prince to the attention of the media again. Potty pint sized popstar Prince's fans in seige of Securicor saga!

Does anyone know what Fedex do if nobody is there to receive it? Has anyone received their package in this way?

Someone committed a bank job yesterday in Victoria using a Securicor Van as a getaway vehicle. I bet that bastard stole the van with all our CD's in it, which must now be held by the Police!!

This is clearly where our CDs are, I am so sorry Prince and NPGMC, it is all so clear why you apply a little logic!

Got home and was disapointed to find no CD and no ticket. Then I spied a christmas card from our elderly next door but one neighbour. On the envelope it said that she had a parcel for me... Could it be?


YES!!!

A superb set it is too. Not listened to the aftershow disk yet, but the first 2 discs are great.

Not too sure what to do with the extra piano CD though, ebay?

Oh and my order status still says, "in progress", so if yours is the same don't worry it doesn't mean that is hasn't been shipped yet. Super efficient NPGMC!
