I had ticked the box saying I was willing to send overseas. I must say, when I came to post I was regretting it. ISTR the guideline gift was around £20 of value, well the postage to Canada with tracking alone was over £15. I was then doubly miffed when the tracking wouldn't work. Finally today I went into the Royal Mail office here. They told me it had arrived in Canada on the 14th and was delivered (no signature) on the 15th (I'm still trying to ascertain it went to the right person). Oh, the reason tracking wouldn't work? Well, the tracking number began L00217... but, oh no it didn't, apparently it began LO0217...! However, no matter how long and hard I stare at the printout from the local PO, there is NO discernible difference between the second and third characters! Grrrr...
Meanwhile, my Santa has apologised for being busy (end of semester... should tell me something) and says he'll post Real Soon Now...
