I always seem to send them late, or they just don't get there, no matter how early I think I am

I bought the cards this morning...finally.......and will be writing them over the next day or so..........

The postal service is certainly erratic. Letters that I send back home, and letters I receive from the UK NEVER take more than 3 working days, 2 is more usual. Not sure why it takes longer in some areas?

From here letters to the UK normally take 3 days, from the UK can easily take 6 days, although recently a PARCEL posted in the UK on a Friday afternoon was here on the Monday
