Hey all,

I sent a letter there the other day to Australia by "Swiftpost". Just wondering - but do any of you know how long it takes for a letter to reach Australia?

Also I put a 20 euro note inside as payment for an Ebay purchase...hopefully no one will take it

I hear the australian customs are very very particular especially on any organic subtances that might break out into the ozzie enviorment. Apparently they scan irish post in particular around Paddys day to remove Shamrock relatives send over. It may contain some alien microbe that would kill native australian flys and such.

Regards,

Lenny

Why didn't you ask an post when you were posting the item in the post office?

Dathai

If you registered it it should be safe enough.It more than likely should take around 4-5 days to reach them.

Ste-

I doubt four or five days.
In all seriousness I'd say maybe a week or so.

Strangly enough it never occured to me to ask.

I remember I got a parcel sent over from Hong Kong by special 4 day courier. Only thing was it took 3 weeks to arrive

Everyone in the Uk all recieved theres in 3 days but due to the Irish address it took an extra 2 and a half weeks.

Dam this Island !
