People have just a few days to make sure letters and parcels are sent in time for Christmas.

Isle of Man Post Office's last recommended posting dates for certain items to be sent across the Island and to the UK will be early next week.

Residents are being told next Monday (December 21) will be the last chance to send any Special Delivery or Parcelforce express24 packages to the UK as well as any on-Island letters, large letters and packets.

Meanwhile, the final day for Special Delivery items to be sent to someone on Manx shores will be on Tuesday, December 22.
