Due to the global pandemic and high postal service workload your shipping may be interrupted or delayed, this is beyond my control so sorry for any delays! Please allow 2 weeks for deliveries.
I am only posting orders a couple of times a week, so bear in mind it might take me a couple of days to ship your order to minimise contact at the Post Office.
Please get in touch if I currently don't ship to your country - I may still be able to post to you if you are willing to wait for any postage delays.
