When I used to send or recieve surface mail from UK it was 9-16 weeks. So never do it anymore.
Thanks, Lane-ends. Wow, 16 weeks. That Royal Mail employee who originally quoted the seller should have been hauled over the coals. Any idea what goes on with packages on the cargo ships or whatever? I was wondering if the parcel could be in a "dead letter office" somewhere - my address made illegible by water damage, ha ha.
