I have 2kg bag of cat biscuits to go back to Vet UK and they said they would refund the cost of buying.

So yesterday packed it back in box drove 2 miles to Popst Office cos thay have closed all the small branches including one at end of road. Queued for ages then found it was gonna cost me £6-80!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! to send it back, which would need cash for.

Told em I would take it home again cos wasnt sure it was worth it.

2nd phone call to Vet UK to see how much I would get back.........only enough to give me £3 over the postage......but then I will have another 2 miles drive and another queue and my costs to datewill be if I do this:

4 miles driving
30mins plus queuing
2 long distance telephone calls
Stress and messing about

I think all of that has probably eaten up the £3 and I would also need to go and find cash from somewhere so more driving and queing!

If you don't think it's worth returning it, you could always auction it.
