You probably won't have to wait for a result if you apply in person (same day isn't guaranteed..) but it's definately more hassle especially if you don't live near a PEO - your nearest PEO is Glasgow, my nearest PEO is Croydon which for me would have been a 2 hour journey each way and therefore would have meant a day off work. Far more hassle than just nipping into the post office and sending it special delivery.
Hmm ... think WE'LL just nip through to Glasgow when MY wife's turn comes around ... it's only just over an hour's journey from Perth. And with me being retired, I can easily call back to collect in the event of any unforeseen delay.

Much obliged for this 'useful to know' information, Darren.
