I hope my parcel to England has a first class seat all to itself and the best of service from plane staff. It can forego any food or drink but should be tucked in neatly. It ought to. I was astounded at the cost. The small vest shown in the previous entry. I have washed and blocked it, a small book and a small light shawl for the baby's mum. All in a padded envelope. Cost was over $30!
It was not really heavy nor large. I have long associated expensive postage with the USA but I thought this was somewhat steep.

I posted three paperback books (comparatively heavy) to USA several weeks ago because they were won in my give-away! They cost me more than $30. I should have sent some money - the winner could have bought the books cheaper there! And they still haven't arrived!!
I'm sure the gift will be appreciated.
Our postage is outrageous, think Mum spent about $60 on a couple of small parcels to UK. I have a 3Kg box of knitted squares to send to Sth Africa , sea mail expecting $60 - $70
It is so expensive, but until they invent things for Star Trek it is the only way to post.
