I have just tried to order one of the cardboard size guides. They are no longer available but Royal Mail are willing to sell me a a plastic version for (believe it or not) £29.64. That seems a bit extortionate for a piece of plastic! I don't think I will bother.What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?0 -
