What is happening - they've voted that they would go out on strike if asked

when is it happening - they've not decided yet as they're waiting for Royal Mail management's response.
They're likely to make an announcement the early part of next week.

Normal service - anyone's guess, probably AFTER Christmas

In the next few weeks - Sorting offices are backing up, so don't expect normal service from a 1st class stamp
If you send special delivery it bypasses the regular channels but obviously costs more

This is becoming a final fight to the death, "there can be only one!" So don't expect it to be pretty or over quickly.

So are there already strikes affecting things now? My post has been very erratic - still waiting for something off CRC I ordered 10 days ago, ordered something else since and it came next day.
