Residents are being told next Monday (December 21) will be the last chance to send any Special Delivery or Parcelforce express24 packages to the UK as well as any on-Island letters, large letters and packets.

Meanwhile, the final day for Special Delivery items to be sent to someone on Manx shores will be on Tuesday, December 22.
