They telephoned me a couple of hours before my morning mobile appointment to ask if it could be postponed until the afternoon. I agreed, but they then didn't show up at all. I haven't heard from them since.

Excellent, 2nd time used and would definitely recommend. My hallway has been transformed with a marvellous suggestion on the style.
