“It came a bit late. It arrived after we'd cut the cake.”Person 2 · minute 3
“I ordered in the morning and by three it still hadn't come, so I bought from the shop next door.”Person 5 · minute 2
“The desserts are good, but I don't dare order for parties any more. I'm afraid it won't make it.”Person 7 · minute 4
