Telefonica is the bees knees

How do we know who's to blame posting either way though? You could post from UK to Spain and it be delayed or Spain to UK and it be delayed, in which country though.

The only way to be sure is with internal post.

I have never, touch wood, had a problem with Correos, So I can't complain.

I can answer that one for you, as I've had similar problems.
The post into the US has been severely delayed by freakish weather this year. Some parcels sent later have arrived earlier. Some have taken over 2 months!
The only reason for putting certificado on, is so that if the post is going to a customer, and you have to replace it because of the delays. You then have proof whether it turned up eventually.
For all I have some of the nicest, most honest customers in the world. Even so, a few won't notify of an original parcel turning up after a replacement has been sent.
