From 7pm Wednesday the charming people at Royal Mail are going to be on strike which means my pack 3 is going to be delayed as I have not yet heard from the embassy.

So is anyone in same boat as me?

Are they now striking indefinitely? Or is this just another one of their one day strikes? If its a one off, then I'd not worry, as it will only hold you up another day or two in receiving Packet 3.

Bbut if its indefinite, UGH!

I have a friend who's a postie in Essex, I'll check with him tonight for more details if I can get a hold of him!

Good luck!

UGH! That does stink! So they're stepping it up now. I hope it is resolved quickly for the sake of all UK Visa seekers!

I sent my documents down to them on Saturday, and I read in the papers today that there is a rather large backlog of mail to be delivered from the strike. I knew I should have sent it special delivery...
