Oh bug**r!! just have!

well, we have been advised not to put anything in the post til thursday, so you will experience a few days' delay with your bits and bobs.
the postmen/women and people in the sorting office are on strike til wednesday lunchtime.

It's not just delay - things get lost or destroyed in the hiatus.

I paid a couple of bills last week - and sent them second class - that's the excuse - "the cheque is in the post"

I ordered seeds on the 30th from Real Seeds, and they came the morning of the strike, Thursday  ;D
