It's not the bloody pacific were talking about here, it's Northern Ireland, part of the UK. As Cardnim has already posted, our Royal Mail sorting office is second to none in the rest of the UK. Many, many times have I had stuff delivered the very next morning after ordering from the mainland, sometimes not having ordered it till the previous afternoon. Our postmen and women don't swim the Irish sea you know.

It's for this reason I'd often take the supposedly longer Royal Mail option than a courier.
About the only time I can remember Royal Mail failing to deliver (it was for my brother's computer business) was when their plane tragically crashed in the Irish Sea, killing both crew.
