'Twas dark and cold,
the snow was deep
we were nice and warm, asleep.
But Clayton came, despite the odds,
and safely delivered to the Todds
our veg and milk, eggs and meat,
hooray for him - quite a feat!
"Just wanted to say thanks for the delivery we got on Wednesday - I was convinced you wouldn't be able to get to us (or even want to try!) after it snowed all night. I'm just sorry there was nobody in to offer the driver a cup of tea (we were in the park sledging....)"
"I'd just like to express my amazement and thanks that my Abel and Cole order arrived today. I'd just spent 1.5 hours along with my neighbours trying to dig at least one car out in order that someone would be able to get to the supermarket to pick up some communal supplies - and when I returned to my front door, my Abel and Cole boxes were there! Incredible!"
"I just wanted to take the time to contact you and say a huge WOW with regard to my delivery arriving yesterday!!!!! I didn't for one minute think that I would get it - we live at the top of a big hill which I haven't been able to drive down since Wednesday - my Husband has been having to park the car at the bottom and drive up - we haven't had any post since Tuesday - you get the picture!! So yesterday - it seems by magic, my delivery from Abel and Cole arrived on my doorstep - I didn't see or hear the van nor the delivery man.....I saw the footsteps in the snow....I am intrigued and in admiration - and very grateful - have you harnessed the power of teleportation?? I can only imagine that either the driver managed to get up the hill or walked my delivery from down the bottom of the hill leading up to us - if so - thank you so much and that person deserves a pay rise (or a very hot drink!)"
"Thank you - and once again Abel and Cole exceeds my expectations!! I'll be telling my friends!"
"Many thanks for getting my delivery to me yesterday (Thursday 7th) & well done to Andrew for getting up the nasty icy hill here in Newhaven - just about the only vehicle to do so! I've been able to share some of my order with my elderly neighbours as none of us are able to get our cars out to stock up at the moment."
"Just wanted to pass on praise and thanks to the delivery man who was working in NW3 area on Weds this week. Despite our roads and pavements being icy and treacherous, he managed to make his deliveries with a smile. We haven't left the flat very much this week so the veggies and fruit were appreciated even more than usual this week!"
"We would like to send a Big Thank You to our delivery driver, Andrew, who braved the horrendous weather conditions to deliver our fruit and veg box yesterday. As you can see from the attached photo of our front garden we had quite a bit of snow (about 5 inches) and the road and pavements in our Close were very slippery with ice - I wasn't able to get to work. So we really appreciate the superb effort made by Andrew."
"Bless Derek for managing to negotiate the hills around my house, and deliver to my door today. I cannot begin to imagine the stress caused by having to drive in these weather conditions."
"A big thanks for getting my box out to me today, i've been let down by tescos this week but if i have my fruit and veg i can survive most things!"
"I'd just like to add my comments to those already made re your drivers. I fully expected that my delivery yesterday would be cancelled as the conditions are very tricky and our road hasn't been gritted at all. Despite this, my veg etc was delivered as usual. I hope the driver had a safe journey and got home OK."
"We wanted to give our thanks to your delivery driver and packers for managing to get our box to us on Wednesday. We were almost a foot deep in snow in our East Grinstead back street and did not expect the delivery to make it through."
"I just want to thank your driver for getting our delivery to us on Wednesday. I was really surprised as our area is ungritted, and very snowy and I have been unable to drive. I was really impressed, specially as I know several of the supermarkets have not been able to deliver. Thanks again!"
"Thank you so much to the driver who delivered my order yesterday; it was such good service, very impressive and very much appreciated. Thank you."
"I would just like to send out thanks to the delivery man who has just delivered our weekly order. We really appreciate the fact that he walked to our house from the main road, in the deep snow, so that the order could be delivered."
"Just a quick line of thanks for the excellent service from yourselves, and in particular Wesley during the current problems with the weather."
"I am emailing to thank my driver, Paul for the delivery made on 22nd Dec. I was not expecting a delivery due to the terrible raod conditions, but to my amazement he persevered and delivered, where other couriers failed."
"I would just like to say a massive thanks to Dave my driver for struggling out in the most horrific conditions, he has done your company proud. He is also a pleasure to see every Thursday as is always happy and cheery, as he was yesterday in the freezing conditions."
"Your driver Alan delivered to us today, when I really didn't think he could. Our road is not gritted and its on a hill. Well done Alan, thank you so much."
"I just wanted to say Thank You very much for my delivery this week despite the horrendous weather conditions your drivers faced. It made my day to see all my lovely food in the natural fridge that was my snow filled garden yesterday. Well done and many thanks to all the team!!!"
"Happy New Year to you all and please thank Alan for delivering yesterday - nobody could get to the school we live opposite but Alan made it with (I hope) not much difficulty. You set a fantastic example to the rest of the country! Thank you once again for everything."
"I would like to say a huge thank you for my delivery today to your driver who negotiated a steep hill down to my house which hasn't been gritted yet. Also for the Christmas delivery on 21st December where he had to incur the same conditions as well. A big thank you to your suppliers as well for getting the produce to yourselves to enable deliveries."
"Just a quick note to say thank you for our delivery yesterday. With the adverse weather we have been experiencing we did not expect our usual delivery as we thought the snow would stop your driver reaching us. Would you thank him and pass our thanks onto the rest of your staff and suppliers for continuing to deliver despite the weather."
"Can I please add my thanks to your long list, specifically to our driver Jason who delivered my box today as he does week by week. In a week where nothing else has managed to get here from mail to groceries to my fish order, my veg box is the only thing that has made it to my door. Despite the horrendous road conditions, I am very impressed by your dedication and perseverance, and the friendliness and service all year. It is very much appreciated."
"Thank you so much for all your efforts this week to get through the snow and deliver our boxes - we so appreciated it!"
"I would just like to say a big thank you to the driver for delivering my weekly order in such terrible weather conditions."
"I would just like to say Thank you and well done to both Able and Cole and Richard, our driver. Only about an hour later than our normal delivery. My friend had her Tesco's delivery cancelled yesterday! The side roads here are just like ice rinks."
"A huge thank you to our driver who delivered to us on Wednesday morning in the Reigate area, especially as our road is knee deep in snow!"
"Also, I would just like to say how impressed I am with your delivery service during this bad weather. We live up the top of a very steep hill and noticed that your delivery guy walked up with our weekly box. I really had not expected it to be delivered this week."
"I just wanted to write and say a big thank you to our delivery driver, Krzystof. Coming in inclement weather he delivered our box ensuring the contents arrived in the very best condition. Last week he even placed our box in a black bag (the one I left your boxes in for recycling) ensuring the contents was protected from the 4 inches of snow we had! I feel this was over and above the call of duty. In addition, we have been very pleased with our boxes so far."
"Please will you send a special thank you to Wesley for going to such a lot of trouble to get us our orders on Tuesday. He is really smashing and I am very grateful to him."
"My fridge was looking decidedly bare this morning so seeing Sean and his helper arrive, having battled through all that snow to deliver, brought me great joy and a huge sense of relief - I could put dinner on the table! Well done to all the drivers and not forgetting the Farmers too - I would now be quite lost without my totally reliable Abel and Cole delivery."
"I just wanted to say thank you for all the efforts being put in to ensure my box reaches me despite the weather. A huge thank you to Dominik who delivers without fail each week. I love my small mixed box and wouldn't be without it every week!"
