    I'd start putting the air mail stickers back on and see what happens.

    I have been complaining to the Post Office here about the time it is taking US mail to reach me here in the UK.

    Registered/Insured mail from California has been taking up to 8 weeks to arrive here. The tracking systems all indicate the delays are here in the UK (probably Mount Pleasant) hence my complaints. As usual with Royal Mail you either hear nothing or get some standardised reply from a different mail center each time. I think I may build up a collection of these replies - may look interesting on Watchdog or similar - so far Belfast, London, Newcastle, Derby, Hemel Hempstead and Portsmouth.

    On a different tack I was in Ghana at the beginning of March for a couple of weeks and I mailed a quantity of mail to myself - so far nothing has arrived from there so the problem is not confined to mail from the USA.

    I also find nearly all my Recorded and overseas Registered and Insured mail is either dumped through my letter box with the ordinary mail or left on the door step unsigned for.

    According to the Royal Mail, there are no reported problems at the moment with mail going to/from the US.

    Looking at the bottom of that page, there are quite a few public holidays this month, especially in Europe so even more delays may be expected!
