Following last week's deadline for posting Christmas mail to Australia and other far-away places, today is another significant day for despatching parcels in the run-up to December 25.
Isle of Man Post is reminding local residents it's the last chance for guaranteed delivery of gifts to America, Canada, Japan, Eastern Europe and operational British forces post offices.
Mail destined for Western Europe, including Ireland, and static forces offices should be sent by Friday.
