I just got a Christmas card from my brother in the U.S. and it took ten days. Australia should be faster than that...
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Went in there to explain that I had important mail needed for immigration and it had now been 4 months. spoke politely to the boss who invited an English speaking colleage to join us and we did a tour. Cetainly lots piled up but they were working on it it. Was invited to go back this week and help certify any of my mail

Well I find EMS works OK especially as you can track it from HH to just about anywhere. 4 days from HH to Bristol in the UK

Anybody know if EMS tracking can be used the other way round? For example, a registered letter sent in the UK to a PO box in HH.

ps Funny how post appeared after paying for PO box extension :?

In that case, the answer is yes. If you look back a few posts, you'll see that I suggested using the signed for service - it's never failed for me.
