Scots waiting on Christmas deliveries may be hit with delays as popular courier DPD has announced that Royal Mail strike action will put extra pressure onto its operations.
It says that next-day deliveries to around five percent of postcodes in the UK will be suspended, and some postcodes will experience two or even three-day delays.
The courier blamed the delays on the walkouts staged by over 14,000 Royal Mail workers, although DPD confirms that most areas will not be affected, reports the Mirror.
