Re: Brexit deal and imports

According to this https://www.reddit.com/r/LegalAdviceUK/comments/l2j9af/paying_vat_on_imports_from_outside_the_uk_as_an (and I trust the people replying there), only the purchases under £135 are treated differently now. Why "they" did this will forever be a mystery to me. I think the ans...

Re: Brexit deal and imports

Just a note, it's the despatch time that matters, not arrival.

Re: Possible poorly Pachypodium horombense?

Thanks Nick_G The plant sitting immediately behind it is a densiflorum in an identical compost in an identical pot. That plant has just a couple of leaves which look scorched. El48tel, if the plant is one of a couple I sent you we both should be grateful to Nick_G, whose seed and generosity it was ...

Re: December Cactus world is here

Or slowed down by Dutch Customs too, if a CN22 label wasn't attached? Periodicals don't count as simple correspondence so I understand such labels are now required.
