Must have been meant to be, it's been dispatched - woohoo!!
As an extra measure, I got an email from Hobbs asking if I had good or bad service from my contact with them, I said bad because the guy was really rude at the Covent Garden store when I called, and now they've been very apologetic so I also have not one but two reserved at the Hobbs warehouse in case for any reason the JL one doesn't work out 😂
