Sir, – Since Brexit I wondered if anyone else has had problems receiving mail from across the Irish Sea.
I feel like I am playing the lottery if I post anything nowadays over to Ireland. At this point my luck has been one in three – that is, I have sent three parcels and one has been received.
The customs declaration form is the equivalent of giving a key to a burglar. The details to be filled in include how much the contents are worth, are they a gift and how much they weigh. I feel it’s the equivalent of leaving your front door open and telling the burglar “My gold bracelet is in the third drawer down and oh it’s worth £50.”
Next time (if I dare ever post anything else to Ireland), I will describe the contents of my parcel as “Used underwear – value £5″. – Yours, etc,
