Discussions with my Post office reveal that Australian normal overseas "Airmail" is going "by boat" because of COVID.

For outbound Australian mail to UK and USA 6 weeks delivery may be considered Normal at present but only a few days ago a letter from me was received in Galway 3 Months after leaving Australia.
