[QUOTE]Originally posted by Geoff Mayo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by KacyB: [qb] I have one question... and I appreciate you might suggest I move my conversation to another place (which I'm happy to do) but here goes: On the way, I'd like to get photos taken, buy little momentos etc., I'd like to post these home rather than carry them with me, but I know enough to know that your postal service isn't like ours (as in... you don't have little red boxes all over the place!) ...Is it quite easy to post stuff back to the UK? I'm really talking about photos (you know, the ones you buy at inflated prices of the kids doing mad stuff!) I'm only thinking flat packed photos and a few little items but would be much easier to post them rather than carry them all. I remember trying to post some postcards in SF and it being really difficult to try and find a post centre (We have post boxes on pretty much every second corner) and you just stick stamps on and send it. APologies, this is vereing off trains... so I'd be best to move it, please shout. [/qb][/QUOTE]Find a US post office, grab a box, stuff it with whatever you like, go to the counter, send it off. They do flat rate boxes like one I sent to my sister for about $60; cheaper ones too, especially if you're only going to send documents (photos). One reason for not needing post boxes all over the place is that you can leave your mail in your mailbox for the mailman (postman) to collect as (s)he delivers your mail. Great idea, though obviously wouldn't work in the UK as they tend to be letterboxes in front doors rather than mailboxes on the street. [/QB][/QUOTE]
