We map the real UK postal deadlines and then make a case for a calmer, kinder plan when posting isn’t workable. Between reminder systems, digital gifts, and local workarounds, we put connection ahead of a calendar date and reframe “late” as part of the joy.
• second class, first class, tracked, and special delivery dates for UK post
