    I received two letters from PA this week. One was sent on 15th August and the other was sent on 17th August.
    They both arrived with me in the UK on 20th and 21st August respectively.

    That's very impressive. In fact they both took less time to travel 3,500 miles than a small book I ordered from ebay that took 8 days to arrive from 25 miles away in the same County as the one I live in.

    Pen mailed from Belgium on August 4 arrived here in Coalmont, BC, on August 20. That seems pretty functional.

    Mail posted from Pennsylvania and arrived the last couple of days: England was 4 days and 5 days. Germany was 5 days. Minnesota to Pennsylvania was 18 days. Ontario seems to be a black hole for mail.
