Good service at branch.

The staff at Branch always helpful both at the sales counter and in the warehouse.
Only issue, was product ordered had a proposed delivery date, but this wasn't confirmed. Had to chase up to confirm. Didn't receive txt to say order was ready to collect until after it had already been collected.
