I will continue to make and despatch orders as quickly as possible (usually same day), but once the package is in the post, we are at the mercy of Royal Mail. Just because your post code is listed does not mean that your parcel will be delayed, but it is only fair to provide a warning about potential problems.
The list of affected regions changes regularly, so it may be worth keeping an eye on the Royal Mail service updates page if you do a lot of shopping online.
