    No.

    SDS vans are still used but the distribution centre was closed down and ever since the delivery times for parcels has been rubbish, no surprise really.

    Royal Mail use an post for regular post including packages up to a certain size but anything sent through their Parcelforce company is delivered in Ireland by GLS.

    3 days if your very lucky, probably be over a week.
