With the postal strike in full effect, is it affecting the mail that you've sent? We have some e-card suggestions if you're struggling to send a card

Strikes by postal workers could escalate into longer walkouts after the collapse of talks aimed at resolving the bitter mail dispute.

Mr Hayes also revealed that the union was close to making a decision on whether to take legal action over Royal Mail's move to hire 30,000 agency workers to deal with the backlog of mail caused by the strike as well as the Christmas rush.
