What date did you pay? What method of delivery would have been used to 
post it?

Let's say you transferred it late on Christmas Eve.  It could probably 
take 3-4 working days to arrive in his account, so that would mean he 
would it could hit his account by the 4th/5th Jan, although in my case 
if the item is going to clear on a Monday, I can see it as cleared for 
the next working day on the preceding Saturday

Also, what were the first 2 digits of his sortcode.  Transfers to some 
of the older building societies may take longer.

What is his feedback like?

He may not have access to internet banking to check whether the money 
has arrived, and may still be on holiday
