Shipping delays and Homeland Security?

Has anyone else noticed or experienced really bad shipping delays from the UK lately? I have 3 fairly small purchases from 3 different UK vendors that I'm still waiting on - its been about 2 months now. Used to take about a week. I think its due to extra security screening but don't know for sure. Its driving me nuts because its hard to tell if its a lost shipment, slow vendor, or some other reason.
 
Two months, have 'em put a trace on it.
That is NOT Homeland Security....that's lost.
 
Yeah, I've put some emails out on the stuff. Looking at the credit card charges, one of the orders may not have been shipped until early January, but still, this is taking a lot longer than I'm used to.
 
Actually, I get my meds from CanadaPharmacy.com and two of the drugs (generic Plavix and generic Lipitor, neither of which is available in the good ole USofA) come from the UK. The last shipment (usually takes a week) just arrived 2 months late! But, I got it (after having to scramble for free samples from every Doc in town) at least. Then, Canada Pharmacy actually did a reship on the drugs to accommodate me and this shipment arrived in 10 days, from the UK. Take heart (no pun intended), you will receive your order. It is a Homeland Security thing.
 
Randy, somehow I have a feeling that the customs agent in charge of your package has a TR4 and now some shiny new bits to go along.

Don-

Noooo! I'm paranoid as it is! No one gets my precious! (sorry lame attempt at Lord of the Rings humor)
