Ask Bill the Postman

Dear Bill,
I mailed a package to Ireland quite some time ago via surface mail. The package has not yet arrived. I have the green customs form that I had to fill out when I mailed the package. Can customs track my package for me?
-Worried Joan

Dear Joan,
You might have a chance finding your package by filing a lost mail form at the P.O. The customs forms are not traceable! You should insure your packages when allowed. Express mail is the only service for tracking overseas. -Bill the Postman

Dear Bill,
Thanks for the advice. I just wanted you to know that my package finally arrived last week.
-Not Worried Anymore Joan
