Anyone have any ideas where the new South East hub might be located?
Or would they use an existing place such as PRDC or Greenford instead?

According to RM they already have agreed the 3 new "super hubs".
Anyone heard where these might be, particularly the South East one?

Just stuck into Google Earth directions Sidley to Plymouth as an example, it come out with just over 5 hours for a car. I reckon it'd be at least 5 1/2 hours for a lorry given that they're are limited. Given that distance it seems like it's pointing to some of the hubs delivering mail in the evening
