That sounds funny to me, as I do my very best to avoid ParcelForce when
having things sent from the UK to Denmark. They use GLS (a courier service)
as their agents in Denmark, which results in packages that they attempt to
deliver when I am not home being returned to a large depot miles away. If I
can keep packages under 2 kilos, they can be sent by Post Office airmail
(usually with a security/fast delivery service on top).Packages are usually
delivered within two days, early in the morning by special delivery. If I am
not home, I can collect them later from the local post ofice, about 10
minutes walk away.
