It's good to see the standard 2nd class LL is unchanged at £1.55 but the price for 1st class LL is going to a ridiculous £3.20 . £3.95 for a standard 2nd class small parcel - which means SD , at the current costs, is almost £1 a cheaper than sending yourself although I suspect that will change. (these are online prices)
For those that use the PO or stamps, 2nd class small parcel will be £4.25.

Goodness, I hadn't noticed that, how strange.
