Ness Dec 2018 4:26pm, 15 Dec 2018 9,788 posts	0 Ness Collected my parcel from the sorting office this morning. The outer envelope had been quit badly damaged and ripped open. The Post Office had put it in a plastic bag with an apology letter saying that if there are missing or damaged items to fill in a claim form. As I don’t plan to open it until Christmas Day, I don’t know where I stand on that. (There are two parcels in the envelope so that might be what should have been there). The gifts will be much appreciated, Secret Santa. Thanks x
BaronessBL Dec 2018 10:22am, 16 Dec 2018 7,398 posts	0 BaronessBL For those still waiting for parcels and to the Santas who posted them (and as an elf this year I've been in fmail contact with one of my Santas on this very topic) I looked into ordering a gift for someone online yesterday and was shocked at how long Royal Mail think is reasonable for a second class item. Apparently posting second class means it can take anything up to three weeks - which I certainly didn't know so I can see why FSS 'rules' like Santas to have posted by December 1st now. Certainly something I'll remember for next year.
