| | Courier Report FER-1392 DISPATCHED: 03/05/08 DELIVERED: 04/05/08 kate rich dep Cube Microplex at 13h with backpack of 19 coffee. Stopped off at Bristol's Bridewell former police station for Bristol Radical History panel session (The Global Commons!) then walked through Castle Park cherry blossom haze to Bristol Temple Meads for the offschedule 1709 departure to London. The Saturday newspapers announced massive house price plunges and Tory Council seat captures for the London area. Train manager announced that due to planned pickup of Millwall fans at Swindon, first class had been declassified. Bristol passengers were advised to move to the first class carriages which, on arriving in Swindon would not have their doors released to guard against football rowdiness. At Swindon this came to pass, additionally the buffet car immediately closed. The train manager apologised for any inconvenience. At Reading station a barrage of police met the train at each door and only passengers with Reading-oriented tickets were allowed to exit. Arriving at Paddington all others disembarked through another cloud of police officers, and Feral Trade walked down tube tunnels surrounded by now unpoliced yet pretty docile Milwall fans. Alighted the tube at Leicester Square into suffocating crowds of Saturday night, walked through Soho to mainly deserted private members club Blacks, where 1 bag of coffee was incidentally sold. Later in the evening, minicabbed it to Whitechapel where the coffee was depoted overnight. AM pickup by Furtherfield.org Ruth Catlow at Palmiers coffee shop on Vallance street, from where the coffee travelled by car to Stoke Newington Swimming pool and was parked outside. Feral Trade and Furtherfield swam laps till the pool was evacuated by a false alarm fire, bathers were restricted from either re-entering the pool or exiting the area, after which approximately 25 minute standoff, ft & ff insisted on their right to nondetention and managed to exit to changing rooms, shower, dress and receive a pool refund to spend on tea & quiche at the nearby Clissold Park Cafe, amongst ancient trees and green spaces. The coffee was later delivered to HTTP by Furtherfield car. |

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.
