Pass the parcel
@ 2009-10-29 – 08:25:55
For parcels weighing more than 2kg, it's almost always cheaper to go though a web courier rather than the Royal Mail.
Check out web parcel companies like Parcel2Go or MyHermes, who will give you a range of quotes from supplies like Fedex and DHL.
Sending an 8kg, 40cm cube within the UK with Royal Mail costs £11.74, with no tracking and compensation up to £39. But Parcel2Go offer the same service with delivery tracking and compensation of up to £50 for just £7.46.
These companies say business is booming due to the postal strike - though you might find they're somewhat busy this week!
Some things to bear in mind: check that you have enough insurance (you can buy extra), and that you don't ship anything on the banned items list (including any kind of liquid). Make sure your weight and size measurements are accurate, too, or couriers have been known to complain.

Sunflowers And The Sun God ...
‘The heart that has truly loved never forgets,
But as truly loves on to the close,
As the sunflower turns on her god when he sets,
The same look that she turned when he rose’The word sunflower comes from the Greek ‘Helianthus’ ... ‘Helios’ meaning ‘sun’ and ‘anthos’ meaning flower and it is Greek mythology which provides us with the story of the origin of the sunflower ...
There was once a water-nymph called Clytie who fell in love with the God of the Sun Apollo (or Helius). She was so much in love that she would sit on the ground and stare up at the sun all day long ... but, Apollo never noticed her ...
The other Gods took pity on her and turned her into a sunflower ... her legs became the sunflower’s stem, whilst her face became the flower, her golden hair the petals.
Even in the form of a sunflower Clytie continues to watch her love and that is why the sunflower’s face turns to follow the path of the sun ...
