Helen Cold Fri, 18 Feb 2011 Hi there Kate, Did you get the shipment yet? Hopefully there were no problems there for you (and hopefully the security guys that searched the shipment before it was sent didn't damage the packaging!). You probably got the receipts in the boxes, but I am going to scan and send a copy ASAP (will include transportation,coffee, and I can scan the airbill if you would like a copy). As I said, the shipping bill was less than the quotation over the phone (don't have the airbill here, but the final cost was $477.?? and not $550.00) and so was wondering if I could send you a personal check for the difference. Could you cash that at your local bank? That would probably be the easiest way for me to get money to you, and would have the smallest fee associated with it. We had to pay $4.50 total for the morning's parking, and sending a letter to you will probably cost around $1.50, so I can send you a check for $67.?? if that method of payment will work for you. Just let me know, or if something else would work better. I'll also get you some photos as soon as I am able to download them. Thanks! Helen
kate rich Sat Feb 12th cycled to the Money Shop Western Union agent on Gloucester road Bristol with £719 cash transfer to Blanca, the farmer, for pick up at the Western Union agent, San Salvador airport (SAL) Monday morning. Monday at 14:11h GMT got an SMS from Helen and Matt at SAL with Blanca. She had given her maiden name for the transfer which did not match her government ID. Cycled back to the Money Shop and waited in line with all the end of month paycheck advance customers, eventually showed the counter clerk my photo-ID and got the name change. SMS from Helen at SAL with shipment success and the Delta airwaybill number for tracking. Back home I phoned Kingscote Freight agent at LHR to intercept the shipment on arrival. As I don't have a fax machine, I had to email Kingscote a request to World Freight Services to hand the shipment over to Kingscote on arrival, which they then faxed to World Freight Services. As green beans (not roasted, not decaffeinated, not organic / Tariff code 09011100) the coffee isn't liable for VAT or duty, the Kingscote agent suggested excise duty might be payable but that seems to only apply to alcohol, cigarettes, carbon trading and gambling.

FERALTRADE products passed by hand. The word 'feral' describes a process that is deliberately wild, as in pigeon, as opposed to nature wild (wolf).
