Should be okay. You must also be in the UK at the start of your qualifying period, three years prior to when the UKBA receive the naturalisation application.

I agree that if you post Special Delivery on Wednesday 21.12.11, and it arrives at UKBA in Liverpool on Thursday 22.12.11, your qualifying period will start on 23.12.08, and as you were physically in the UK on that date, applying at that time looks OK.
Of course other tests to pass.

i dont have any criminal recored.
I don't doubt it, but say .... drive carefully! And check, and re-check, that you are insured to drive! On this board I have seen too much anguish from those prevented from applying for Naturalisation, for years!
