If you're posting to a major city there's things like Xpresspost International, which is about $50 up to 3 kg, I think.

Re: Mothers Day

I was very clever! Last year I bought Mothers Day cards when they were in the shop for last years Canadian Mothers Day, so I have given one to a friend (as we only have one Mum now:() BUT Have I actually sent my Mum her one? NO!

So thanks for the reminder - I'm off to the post office, in a minute!

Thanks for that!! What a life saver, just checked out the Canada post website and it looks like I might just squeek by as it seems to say it will take 4 days........so me and the kids have a busy afternoon ahead!

Phew!!!
