It is to me as well. Even if it was too late to get scanned into the system on Friday it would have had an acceptance scan at the PO on Saturday or even today. There is an outside chance that the Post Office has forgotten to do that and forgotten to send it on to the Mail Centre, but that chance is about 0.0000009% because of the special processes that everyone handling it has to take.
