Rocky got from me to dadpad in FOUR DAYS! I'd believe that was unusual, though.

Prolly - she ain't shown up here yet!

Just went and checked pm's. Just wanted to confirm that I'd got my own address right - looks OK to me.

And I did state Australia......for what it's worth!

A friend who was in Austria last year sent me a fridge magnet:

There are no kangaroos in Austria!

US postal used to be pretty quick. Then Lance Armstrong retired.
Its been all downhill since then.

I get (all) my cd's from the USA (even those made in Germany: due to currency exchange they are up to 50% cheaper than here :wink: ).

Packages arrive here between 6 and 10 days, and that depends if they go through customs or not.

Walter--

Your CD's were probably shipped in pre-sorted parcel post, cutting off at least one and perhaps two opportunities for error.

How long has Penny been sidelined on the antipodean levee? Where is Robert E. Lee when you need him?

13/15 days depending on how you account for the dateline thing.
Its a little concerning. Maybe she stopped off in Hawii or other south sea island paradise on the way past and got distracted.

You don't suppose she's trying to get a glimpse of the Olympics?

Penny has arrived!

I raced home at lunchtime - on the only sunny day we've had for a week - and there she was, sitting on the door-mat!

Outside for a quick photo in the sun - wearing a hat. (The red hat from Italy for my Red Hat Club!)

Australians are very careful about the sun, you know:
