Hi
I wondered if anyone knows if parcels get through from uk to sa? I know a few years ago everything got opened and nothing made it so we stopped sending to people. Recently I've sent a couple of cards and they seem to have got there quickly and without problems. Anyone know?
cheers

Its the luck of the draw,I'm afraid.
I have had two registered letters in the same batch go missing, and others,non registered get through.
it all depends on who is on duty that day.

My good old mum sends me Private Eye every 2nd week - in a regular A4 brown envelope, plus a card for my daughter (usually with R20 tucked inside). Also some newspaper clippings (about how United are either great or rubbish) and a DVD she has recorded off the telly. In 3 years I have only had 1 not turn up - which is pretty good. If you use a PO box it does seem to be more secure than delivering to a physical address.
