Re: Royal Mail From the UK slow
There are troublesome "Moslums" over there in U-Rope, especially they Brit bastards with their free medical that's made some commie bastards over here want free medical too, and its they Em Effing "Moslums" who put bombs in parcels headed to the US that they "Moslums" wants to take over. So wezze godda check every effing one of the packages real good. Know what I' saying?
This was an explanation from my Postman today.
To his, "Know what I'm saying?" I replied that English was my first language, and that Red Neck was my second. His response was "Do what now?" To which I replied; I would like you to please learn to understand English when spoken by an English man. "You're funny" he laughed as he got back in his truck and spun his wheels on my lawn as he drove off.
So now you know why the post is slow.

Possibly things are improving, a supplier forgot to use UPS and sent me a package "International Signed For Mail" from the UK on Tuesday and it arrived here in VA this morning.

Re: Royal Mail From the UK slow
My daughter's missing Christmas present arrived today!
Not sure if this is a record. It was postmarked December 21st but that was about a week after it actually went to the village post office - I assume the delay there was because the village was cut off by snow.
Looks like it arrived in the US April 10th and has been making slow progress across the various States since.
She is delighted and so is her friend who had thought she must have written the wrong address on it.
