kate rich picked up 1 bag ground coffee from cube under-cinema storage area. walked through bristol city centre to watershed cafe to check email & weather which seemed fine. walked via hotwells backyard-escapee overhanging raspberry bush (worlds end lane) gathering a few feral fruits, then along the avon river portway to the climbing wall at black rock. climbing conditions were great, humid with light breeze. returned to civilisation up steep gorge path to the downs, dodging mountain bikes and other uncertain urban-peripheral activity. stopped off at 'fresh and wild' megastore for some imported packaged foods, met heath in pristine baggage-free pre-flight condition in the f&w cafe. handed over coffee plus plastic carrier bag for carriage. courier paid in berries.

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.
