In fact, many items, including most books, are available for standard delivery, free of postage. You would only need to pay £2-80 for express delivery.

When you're in a rush it is easy to inadvertently forget to do this and then you have to pay the extra.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-74023341963458090842013-06-28T20:37:30.240+01:002013-06-28T20:37:30.240+01:00Oh my goodness, talk about over doing a obituary, ...Oh my goodness, talk about over doing a obituary, wow, wow and wow!
