Mail that doesn't make it there in time - Blackdown CTC

[Lexi]

While I was at Blackdown doing Basic a certain somebody sent me a package of sentimental value... unfortunately I came home before it got there. Alas, I'm worried I'll never get to open said package.. which would be horrible.  :'(

When/if the package does reach its destination, what'll happen to it? I'm hoping it'll somehow find it's way to where I am... or is there a chance that, in the event of a return address, it is returned to the sender?

Thanks for your help,

Lex

:-\ Yea.. I would much like that mail to somehow end up in Alexa's Hands and not sit in some pile in the middle of no-where. Does anyone have the number for the Operations Office at Blackdown?

Base phone is (705)424--1200. I assume if you stay on the line there, the operator will be able to help you out.

I am in the Sgt's Mess at the James Street Armories (Second floor, right up the staircase next to the gun storage). As to who's chair? I'm not sure who's chair it belongs to.. But I'm going to take a stab and assume the Ranking Person!

Thanks. Your first answer took care of my concerns.

I'm wondering if anyone knows about mail being sent to barrie before going to borden.. I've been paying for express post so that it gets there in three days, but when i track the package online it shows that it got to barrie and then ships out and takes like another week to get to the borden base.  maybe if i just sent it regular post it would go straight there?? Or does it have to get cleared first?? anyways, if anyone knows thats would awesome, thanx, niki

Primer,

At the time of my post, Blackdown was still in "summer camp" mode.

Also, she was on the 2 week basic course I assume from the post date.
