Royal Mail delay

[Le Havre Oswald]

Has anyone experienced a delay of receiving letters from royal mail due to covid?

I sent a letter to someone via 1st class and they haven't received it yet. You reckon this is normal?

I Posted it on Sunday.

Sent my eldest a birthday card 2 weeks ago for her birthday yesterday. Still not showed up

 

[jazzy]

Sent a card on Tuesday , arrived today so I guess it depends on staffing where posted and delivery area

You have to bear in mind that it takes awhile for the postie to take it home, steam it open, find there is no money in it, let it dry, reseal it, take it back out and post it in the neighbours letter box. You can't rush these things you know.

Our fucking postie turned up at 9pm last night and because we have a low level letterbox (to keep him fit) he knocks at the door and hands over all the shit adverts like domino's and local double glazing. Going to wire the door up to the mains tonight to teach him a lesson
