UK-Aus Mail Services

[Bealman]

My Carona issue of VIZ arrived on time 

[JonHarbour]

Waiting on:

• Two orders from Rails - one shipped late April, the other being processed (stock ordered on request)
• NGS Journal 02-20
• NGS Journal 03-20 - but that won't have left the UK just yet I suspect

I've had the following arrive:

• One order from Rails - posted March and arrived mid-May. It looks like it got put on a plane from the UK in March and returned to the UK about a month later according to the Royal Mail tracking!
• One order from Hattons
• One order from Gaugemaster
• One order from In the Greenwood Laser kits

So, I suppose it is a mixed bag for me.

things must be improving, just received an order which was placed on 20th May.

Two deliveries came on Monday. Both from Hattons. One ordered on 14th April (48 days) and the other on 3rd May (29 days). Only items now outstanding are N Gauge Society 2/20 and 3/20. Patience is a virtue...

The UK -> Japan route seems to have sorted itself out, I have now received all the post I'm expecting (including a book dispatched two months ago), and items posted last week have taken around the same time they would have pre-shutdown (including NGS 3/20).

Right, well as the pound has resumed its recently customary position gibbering atop Beachy Head, I have sneaked in an order from Hattons for the first time since forever, which is tempting fate and no doubt will herald a crash in global postal services.

  NGS Journal 2/20 arrived TODAY!! I think that is a mere 76 days since it was posted.

**UPDATE**
One more order from Rails has arrived... so that leaves one other Rails order and NGS Journals 2/20 and 3/20.

My two latest deliveries took 2-3 weeks rather than a couple of months for the previous two. So things seem to be improving.

[JonHarbour]

NGS Journal 2/20 arrived today! 

One more Rails order to add and only NGS Journal 3/20 to come now!

[Bealman]

It's strange, my NGSJ 2/20 arrived a few weeks ago.

Anyway, it's a good issue. Four articles from forum members! 

[Graham]

NGSJ 03/20 arrived yesterday, only outstanding shipment now is the HOA's from Revolution, and @Ben A is waiting on his local post office to accept parcels.

[Bealman]

Cool. My issue 3 shouldn't be long then. 

[Graham]

this must be a first, you normally get yours about a week before me.

[Bealman]

Yes, everything is still a bit hit and miss, I reckon!
