G'Day All,
I ordered 5 on 12/03, dispatch date of 18/03. Recieved 28-29/03.
Pretty good to Australia, I thought.

OK, I'll add 5 days to 6 April and I get 11 April.  The date today is 15 April, so where are my certs?  Still it is only half past one and our postman hasn't been yet, so I've got another couple of hours until he arrives.  Honestly, the post is worse than GRO.

Lizzie

Modified - Yippee they've just arrived, so even the postman decided to get up a bit earlier today ;D

Your lucky round here (SW Birmingham) if they deliver before midday ::)  3pm is rare but not unknown, only seems to arrive very early on a Saturday ... I wonder why!
