Forgetting the current distress I recently ordered a book from a U.K. specialty publisher who uses expedited Royal Mail/USPS for delivery. Two years ago I found a Royal Douton figurine in a little antique shop in England who had an only presence. I ordered it for my beloved for Christmas and it arrived via expedited Royal Mail/USPS in four days. This time the package dropped off the radar a couple of weeks ago and has disappeared into the Larentian Abbysal for all I know. Quite the change in delivery efficiency!
It's too bad. The book is of interest to me and was written by a fellow I spent a few hours with when I was in the U.K. We'll stay optimistic and hope it arrives soon.
