Hi Nancy, Address your envelope like this, 5 Oaklea Mews Aycliffe Newton Aycliffe Co. Durham DL5 6JP England The DL5 6JP is the area postcode ( zip code) and note the space between the 5 and 6 Make sure you keep the left hand side of the address straight as the machinery can't read the address otherwise. regards Daphne __________________________________________________________________ Get Tiscali Broadband From £15:99 http://www.tiscali.co.uk/products/broadband
Hi everyone :) I've recently been told (and passed this information on to Nancy) that if you put the postcode LAST it will get there faster from overseas. That information came from an Englishman and I've also heard that from a man in New Zealand. Apparently the postcode being last allows it to be sorted that much faster and as such gets there quicker. Please correct me if I'm wrong!! ;D Take care, Rob.
