The e-mail sent to you upon completion of your on-line order is merely

the item is in stock and that we receive your order before 12pm, your order will
be despatched the next working day when possible. If the item
you have ordered is
not in stock, we will endeavour to ship in three to four working days from receiving. However,
there may be stock issues with our
supplier over which we have no

In the event of an item being out of stock with our suppliers, we will
