By the way, welcome to my blog, Sven!

I think the brits exported that as well to Australia. We had exactly the same experience a few weeks ago .. and not for the first time! The best service I had with parcel delivery was by the German Delivery Service "GLS" , they always delivered my 20kg to the second floor, on time before I left for work. BRILLIANT. Well, you got scones... and the British Mail I am really sorry to hear that… I think the brits exported that as well to Australia.
