Courier Report FER-1361 DISPATCHED: 15/11/07 DELIVERED: 15/11/07 kate rich 55 bags whole bean coffee hauled out of Cube storage area under the cinema seating and loaded into Cube car with assistance of James Vickery. Drove through Bristol town centre frosty sun and 1-way system to Spike Island, parked out front in the disabled parking, from where the coffee was unloaded direct to the canteen storage area. 22/11 feral trade vitrine installed canteen wall with coffee and background information. However - in Feral Trade's 5 month winter abscence from Bristol, the cafe staff removed feral trade coffee from case and replaced it with their own favoured coffee product, a transparent failure in institutional relations to deliver a usable trade link (and successful proof that the social connection is key to feral trade business). The coffee was picked up from canteen in June 2008 and returned to Cube storage.

kate rich 20/6/07 Bank transfer for $3062 ($3011 plus added $51 for random bank charges) with Abbey UK. 17/7/07 email from Ricardo Yglesias, the transfer arrived and coffee is enroute at San Salvador airport. Phoned Kingscote freight agent at Heathrow (0208 890 1000), they will contact when the shipment is landed. 24/7, no news. 25/7 no news, midday phoned Kingscote, they had misspelt my phone number, the coffee was delivered to HCH (Delta freight handlers) Heathrow the previous night, shipping documents lost by Delta. Paid fees to Kingscote by phone. 7PM after bristol commuter traffic ebb, left Cube by car, petrol at 96p/L, M32 and M5 rainless despite earlier this week great South West Floods of 2007 engulfing towns. At Heathrow, followed Terminal 4&5 signs to arrive at the HCH cargo compound. Picked up the shipment retrieval documents at Reception with drivers ID and Kingscote authorisation. Shipment pallet delivered by forklift, boxes were all present but many were opened and the coffee bags looked rummaged. Forklifters kindly reweighed the shipment (252 kg) and recorded the pickup as damaged. Drive home was gloomy yet aromatic. Arrived Cube at midnight, unloaded 1/4 metric tonne coffee into the under-auditorium-seating area. Coop had miscompiled the order as 175kg ground coffee and 75kg beans, the reverse of my emailed order; the ground coffee was also ground too coarse. Emailed Ricardo shipping report then went home to sleep (see http://www.feraltrade.org/coffee/correspondance/shipment7/grind_disaster_07_26_2007_16:45:27-600 for more).
Ricardo Andres Yglesias M. Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 22:19:25 -0600 From: Ricardo Yglesias. Hi Kate, the money arrived to the bank correctly; we took the 250 K today to the airport, and is leaving probably tomorrow to Heathrow by Delta Air Lines with Bill of Lading No. 006-5033-8385 so you can trace it. Tomorrow morning I will send you the Itinerary. Best regards Ricardo. Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2007 14:43:17 -0600 Subject: RE: Coffee shipment will go tomorrow. Hi Kate, I contacted our agent in the airport, COMCA INTERNATIONAL, and they tell me that the shipment is still on the waiting line, and will not leave today, probably tomorrow, but for sure on Friday. I will inform you of the itinerary as soon as I have the information. Thu, 19 Jul 2007 13:58:00 -0600 Hi Kate, I am sending you the mail I received today from COMCA INTL, which they say that Delta will have space until Saturday or Sunday, as I talk to Sr. Juan Montoya this morning. On the other hand we received at the Bank $3,011.90, I understand that the bank here charges $15.00 more or less, when we have the monthly bank statement I'll confirm to you.

FERALTRADE products passed by hand. The word 'feral' describes a process that is deliberately wild, as in pigeon, as opposed to nature wild (wolf). Feral Trade freight operates largely outside commercial channels, using the surplus potential of social, cultural and data networks for the distribution of goods. contact kate@feraltrade.org
