Post haste

Mike Ward writes from Caradon District Council in, as luck would have it, Cornwall.
‘I noticed that on the wrapper my Computing is delivered in are written the words: “Please deliver immediately”. I have been posting first class letters for years now and it has never occurred to me that if I write “Please deliver immediately” on the envelope they might arrive any faster than an ordinary first class letter.
‘I am going to try posting letters second class with the words “Please deliver reasonably quickly” on them, to see if they arrive as quickly as first class ones do. I will gather some results and keep you posted.’
As he is posting material all the way from Cornwall to England, we await Mike’s results with interest.
