@Tianarose I was beginning to think that the #CanuckChristmasSwap package I sent you got lost in the mail! Well, it seems that it‘s not lost, but it hasn‘t even left the province yet.😔 I guess that Xpresspost doesn‘t actually mean it‘ll get there in 4 days, sigh. Here‘s hoping delivery speeds up now that the Christmas rush has past. 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

Tianarose Oh no! Lol. Glad it‘s not lost! Hopefully it gets over the hump soon. Thanks for the update! 3y

@Rissreads this is the latest. WTF is happening at Australia Post? I am so angry, this is just ridiculous. #stuffedstockingswap

Rissreads Yes it is very strange! Something wierd is going on! 😕 5y
gradcat Hope it gets there for your sake...similar problems beginning now in the States, too...what‘s up with post, I wonder—I guess the holidays just put them on overload. 🤔 5y
CarolynM @gradcat The extra traffic shouldn't be a surprise to them - it happens at the same time every year. Surely if they were competently managed they'd have extra staff in place to deal with it. 5y

erzascarletbookgasm I think it‘s the same in most countries. You‘ll think they‘ll anticipate the extra traffic and plan ahead, but still things get stuck somewhere. I‘ve sent out Christmas cards more than two weeks ago, seems no one has received it yet. Only one Litten in UK did. 👍 Royal Mail. 5y
erzascarletbookgasm I hope you get your package soon, Carolyn. 🤞 5y
Ruthiella Bummer! Sorry 😐 5y
gradcat @CarolynM “Competently managed?” 😂😂😂 5y
Avanders Oh what 💩. 😖😖 But maybe it'll suddenly be there.. I was notified about a delay that suddenly righted itself within a day 🤷🏽‍♀️ Who knows what they're doing. Hope it gets there quickly! (edited) 5y

@Rissreads I checked the tracking on your parcel again this morning and this is what it says now. How is it possible for a parcel to take 10 days to get from an inner suburban post office to the city processing facility? Fingers crossed it makes it to you in the expected time. #StuffedStockingSwap

LeeRHarry Gotta love Australia Post - not! 😔 5y
CarolynM @LeeRHarry 😡😡😡 5y
Rissreads I love having something to look forward too! ❤️💚 5y
Avanders Aw man 🥺 But 👆🏽 I agree @Rissreads 😘 (edited) 5y
