Ahh, it’s coming up to that time of year again, although it feels like Christmas has been on the agenda since July, that’s because a lot of shows/events start organising themselves that early. I can’t even think past Christmas right now so when I got an order the other day to be personalised with a date in January – I just thought wow this person has their sh*t together!
So as we enter in November, it seems fitting to give a gentle reminder of Royal Mail’s last recommended posting dates in order for parcels to arrive before Christmas, especially if you are not based in the UK.
