Damn - dude, that would have been pretty awsome...
[Although you would probably get a bunch of drunk homeless people who
smell of cats wanting to hug you, which is perhaps not so cool.]

Flew back from UK to Munich in the afternoon. Flight was delayed due to fog
so I didn't get home until 20:30. My gf had cooked me dinner, I gave her
some presents (the one she got for me hadn't turned up yet, stupid DHL can't
deliver next-day!) then we watched football on TV and went to bed.
Not really that exciting tbh.

Reactions:
#1 - The story ends with "we went to bed" and it was "not really that
exciting"?
#2 - Oh, so DHL failed to deliver stuff for you too, eh?

I meant compared to a normal day.

Yeh, she'd paid for the next day option, but not the before-noon option,
assuming it would show up sometime during the day. Actually on their site
it says it was on route to be delivered at 10am yesterday, but nothing else
yet...

Oh, yeah, OK.

I paid extra to have some items from Zazzle delivered by DHL. The
delivery charge was actually greater than the combined value of the
items! And yet, eventually I had to drive to their depot my ****ing self
to get the parcel, due to their blatent inability to understand simple
instructions.
I was not amused.

Well she'd asked for it to be delivered to the nearest dhl place which is
about 3 minutes walk from where we live... We always get stuff sent there
because often neither of us are home, and it means we can just go pick it up
whenever is convenient for us. Maybe they were full because of it being
14th, I don't know.

For some strange reason my brain skipped over the middle bit leaving me in
a WTF situation. :-)

LOL, although nothing WTF about the before-noon option, it's often useful
and sometimes absolutely necessary. :-)
