| REMARKS: | Freight opportunity arose to ship tea with 2009 Triangle Arts Fellow Robert Knowles travelling London-Dhaka-London for a Britto Arts residency. However the Agora supermarket Dhanmondi where the tea can be bought, is adjacent to Bangladesh Rifles Border Force headquarters where at time of ordering 1000 border guards were charged with murder and arson after a bloody mutiny killing 150, thwarting first tea shopping attempt.

Kate, Just picked up 10 of the largest packs (200g) of tea stocked by Agora.
But that's not all! A representative of Kazi & Kazi was holding a
scratchcard prize draw in the tea aisle, in which I won the handsome
pyrex tea cup and saucer and the nine (think it was supposed to be 10)
plastic beakers you can see in the attached photo. I'll definitely get
cup and saucer in my luggage along with the tea, maybe you can raffle
it off again when you trade on the tea in London? Will bring some more
packs back with me if I have room.
Crazy times here, last night there was an ice cube storm, which made
for refreshing drinks, but later on the way home from a party some of
the Britto guys (not people I think you would have met) got held-up at
sword point!
Cheers, Rob

kate rich Met Robert Knowles at Mangal 1 restaurant in Stoke Newington for a grilled lamb courtesy dinner and tea handover. Robert arrived fresh from his non art day job as HVAC technician at Barclays, Canary Wharf. After dinner and social/research conversation, travelled back by 67 bus via Stamford Hill to Haringey. Alighted at St Annes Hospital / police station and walked to HTTP where the tea was warehoused in the gallery.
