For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The delivery target is "two to three working days". Let's supoose though that the parcel wasn't posted until fairly late on Wednesday, then it would seem fairest to start the calculation from Thursday. That would mean that your parcel should have arrived by Monday in order to meet the target figure. However Royal Mail hasn't been meeting its targets

so it might be a little too early to start worrying yet.
PS: The USPS and Royal Mail seem to have worked well together for me thouh, as I received a letter in today's post that was sent from Westchester, NY just last Wednesday.
PPS: It could be worse. My friends live in Trieste and reckon on allowing about three weeks for Poste Italiane to get a letter from one side of the city to the other!
