Hi

In full agreement with that, I've used that service for a couple from Sydney myself.

Oh  and the postman has just delivered my goodies, both dated 6th August

regards

Hello.  I'm just wondering, does it still take 5 weeks for certificates to arrive from the UK to Australia.  Im also wondering if the post is by ship and not air mail.  In that case it would make sense.              Is the hold up from the UK or Australia?  I know you can receive them quicker digitally but I'd rather the paper version.  Very frustrating  >:(  Elaine Australia

The digital image is exactly the same as the image they put on the certificates.
You could make your own fancy surrounding for them if you just want a more substantial document for physical filing

We had Christmas cards that took over 5 weeks to get here, (NZ)  so I am going to say the delay is probably still similar.

Except for the printed headings and any marginal notes.
