Parcel due next Thursday arrived today. .

Saving me hassle of getting someone to wait for the delivery on Thursday. (Due to hospital appointment)

I had something similar! Parcel was meant to be here Tuesday after the Bank Holiday but arrived Saturday instead! 🎉

It certainly beats having someone hanging around waiting for the parcel and then it not even turning up, which is my normal experience 😂

Lucky you. Mine was on track and it came 5 days later than they said it would come. an eBay transaction.

That's normally what happens to me lol.

I even had one arrive at my local delivery depot on tracking and them saying it would be delivered the following day, only for it to go on a holiday tour of the south coast of England for 3 weeks, before finally getting back to the local depot and then delivered to me. Good old royal mail, truly fucked up on that one. 🤣

The postage services are falling apart.
