Last UK Shipping Dates for Delivery by Xmas (to arrive by 24th Dec):
Tuesday 17th 4pm: this is our recommendation for Royal Mail first class - it's 3 days ahead of their official date, which should leave enough time for any back-logs or delays they encounter.
Friday 20th 4pm: Royal Mail's aim but not guarantee is to deliver orders placed this day by Christmas using First Class post - for safety we would always recommend ordering a few days earlier if you need your order by Christmas!
Monday 23rd 4pm: for DHL and Royal Mail Next-Day Guaranteed (£5.50-£7.50)

Last Shipping Date for delivery by 31st December:
Friday 27th 4pm: This is our recommendation, orders should be delivered next-day, but could be 2 days if Royal Mail have a back-log.
Monday 30th 4pm: While orders placed by 4pm 30th should be delivered next-day, there could be some delays so we recommend ordering by 4pm 27th for delivery hopefully by 30th. DHL or Royal Mail Next-day Saturday Guaranteed can be used before 4pm on the 30th for delivery next-day.
