You would be looking at a courier for this, somebody like Fedex I would imagine. It's not going to be cheap if you want it there that quickly though.

If you can get to your nearest post office in time, Royal Mail do an overnight to many countries. As the USA is at least 5 hours behind us, you may just have a chance.

Last time I did one it was to India so they quoted 48 hours and they failed. Charged me £50 something and repaid £13 when they didn't meet their guarantee.

Still, desperate times call for desperate measures.

Yes, the US Postal Service does very well overnight to the UK, I'd think the Royal Mail would do as well in this direction.

Thanks!

Yeah, that's coming up Thrusday.

Unfortunately, it will be a bit spoiled by Geroge Bush coming to the area today to mispronounce a few dozen words commemorating the first Thanksgiving newr Jamestown.

You've got to admire the hardy folks who first came here, but having him around sort of takes away from the mood.

And yes, the USPS did get it's stuff together when it decided to compete with FedEx, rather than roll over and give up the next day stuff. I'd have thought your guys would have done the same.

They did. Just that, as with everything else they've ried in the past few years, they failed.
