Christmas Post

Yes it's almost that time of year again! We had the first snow on the Cairngorms this year on the 2nd of October, which is the same date as last year, although we haven't had any snow in the village yet. It serves as a reminder that Christmas is coming. So, with that in mind, I thought I'd better check when the last recommended posting times are.

As is usual with Royal Mail, these are recommended dates, which usually means that things posted up to, and including these dates, should arrive in time for Christmas, if everything goes well and the strikes have finished by then!
