Post seems to have been normal where I am, it's weird as latley we're actually getting more deliveries in a day like we're having a postie come by twice in a day and actually getting them fairly early like one at 11 and at 1.
But I'm waiting on a pony parcel at the moment that got sent from the US on Friday so I'll let you know how long it takes to get here.Can't say anything about posting stuff out as I haven't sent anything out latley.

I've been waiting on one item from the US for 3 weeks now, yet I got another item from US the other day and it only took 5 days to get here.

Yeah sometimes I'll have mail twice a day but the last time that happened was like 3 months ago...now I'm lucky if I get anything at all!

Party - that is so bizarre. I have seen my postie with a bag, although I know he also always seems to have a little friend in a van who sits on the street, so I don't think he carries all the parcels with him all the time. I get the impression he does one round with just letters and then the next with the parcels.

 I tell you something that annoys me though - when they have used elastic bands to attach several parcels for the same person together they seem to have a mental block about removing them. I have had to go to the depot on numerous occasions for things that would have gone through the letterbox one at a time if the elastic bands had been removed  :mad: I mean, what??

Anyway, I hope that somehow your postal service improves. It's crazy.

...I fail to see how it is legal for the mail to just not be delivered. There are time sensitive things in there!

I am in the same boat but I am not the only kiwi experiencing this all the parcels being delayed are sent from the us to nz. I am starting to think its more to do with the us service rather than delays in our customs/ post? So far my parcels have gone like this
Parcels sent from Us... 7 weeks, still not here so I consider it lost
                            Us... 5 days, badly damaged
                            Us... 3 weeks and still waiting... getting very worried about it
                            France.. 3 days
                            Finland.. 5 days
                            U.k.. 7-8 days

So really maybe its not just royal mail failing? I do hope they sort themselves out thou!

So glad I am not the only person having problems with them lately, I thought it was bad enough when the just stuck a non delivery note in the mail box straight away, but they really are more useless than ever lately!

In a completely odd move, I sent another member here some ponies last thing on Wednesday & royal mail decided to deliver it this morning. It was just standard post within the UK. I have no idea how it got there so fast!
