Hi Dawn :)

The envelope that arrived today has an pre-paid airmail sticker on it, as have several others I've had in the last four years ???

Their emails also state that the first one was sent by standard airmail, and the second one will be too ??? ???

Are they using a Wright Brother's Flyer to get the post there?

Probably one of those small post office planes that leave Heathrow in the middle of the night when nothing else is flying  ::)

Ages ago it was the fault of the 'mail office' in Australia, is it better out there now
