Hi, I live rural WA and it always takes one week for a letter to get to the UK.

Something I cant understand is why the post is so slow within Australia. Letter can take 2 weeks to me.

I've found that airmail to UK from Sydney (and vice versa) take, on average, one week.

I would be concerned about privacy using a service like that.
