Mother's Day gifts will be posted this weekend

Isle of Man Post Office says flowers and parcels will be delivered for Mother's Day this weekend.

The company says despite weather and ferry disruptions, teams will be carrying out today and tomorrow and will be wearing appropriate PPE and observing social distancing rules.

Residents are asked not to approach their postie when they're out on their rounds and to keep dogs securely indoors whilst doorstep deliveries are carried out.

The postal service adds letter deliveries aren't carried out on Saturdays and flower deliveries on Sunday are an added service just for this weekend.
