there's this marvellous new fangled invention called "post". its a pretty out there idea, and its not for everyone, but basically, you go to a "post office" and they take the package off your hands, weigh it, decide how much it costs for you to send it where it needs to go. You pay them, and this is where it gets good' they take it to wherever you need it to go.
Genius. From what i remember, edinburgh has quite a few of these 'post offices'
on a side note - man its a been a tough day.
