Things are getting better!
Posted a letter to my Mum on the 1st June Tuesday. Asked the lovely lady at Peyia post office if the post had been collected (time was 8.30am). 'Yes gone was her reply, it will go tomorrow.' Not special delivery either only cost 86 cents. Wow what service.
Spoke to Mum tonight the letter arrived today Saturday 6th. Made a 89 year old special lady very happy!
