Anyone else noticed how long it's, now taking for small packages to come from the UK? What used to take a couple of days now takes a couple of weeks.

Complete mess in the UK.
About a 3/4 week backlog on stuff even leaving the UK.I have a watch stuck in UK customs to be shipped to the US for repairs,and it hasn't moved from the UK since late August.
