Blimey, quick passport renewal!

I'm shocked, I'd heard they were taking 10 weeks!

I did my renewal online on 21st October, sent off the old passport same day, and I've just had an email telling me my new passport has been printed and will be despatched within the next couple of days.

Has anyone had this recently? Sounds like their system has picked up again.

DH & I did our applications on Monday.
His arrived yesterday (so 4 days), and mine arrived in the post 20mins ago (so 5 days, or really 4.5 days).
