Letter post (Royal Mail) is running very slowly at the moment, but Parcel Force deliveries are currently running at 24 to 48 hours. not bad in the circumstances.

 I ordered some wood from Sussex Model centre on Tues afternoon and it came next day at 5 pm. How is that for service? Excellent. Well done to the crew, nemesis

I ordered some goods from the Leeds Model shop on Friday afternoon and it was delivered just after 9 am today. How is that for next day service. I think it is excellent, Nemesis

I've always found Leeds Model Shop very good.

Reports in the press are that the letters are being ignored and the parcels have priority so there is a massive backlog of letters in the sorting offices. The more extreme reports in the gutter press are that you shouldn't expect your Christmas post before February.

That would make sense. Parcels are profitable and where the Post Office has to compete with all the other carriers whilst letters are just a legal requirement that they would like rid of.

In reality our post seems slow but OK.

Pity the rail services don't have to compete with each other and if you think nationalism is the answer - - - - NHS.
