Courier Report FER-1387 DISPATCHED: 27/02/08 DELIVERED: 16/04/08 kate rich Tea pre-ordered in nonstandard, low-brand packaging (sealed tinfoil packs of 10) direct from Kazi & Kazi marketing department HQ, Dhaimondi district of Dhaka. Picked up by arrangement from the marketing director Mr Iqbal Khan on the morning of february 27th, preboxed and invoiced. Kazi security issued visitor passes. On leaving the building there was a fairly long altercation with security who, despite viewing the tea receipt, were unsure that the box of tea might not have been somehow stolen. Rickshaw from Kazi HQ to Britto Arts, cenral Dhaka, passing by coincidence another Kazi/Gemcon company asset, the Dhaka University of Liberal Arts. Sameday departure from Britto with barely portable bags overcrammed with mixed produce, to Zia international airport via CNG and regular taxi. Check-in was swift due to online check in earlier on. Emirates flight to Dubai was, as on the outward bound segment, extra exciting with co-passengers who had probably never flown before misinterpreting common inflight conventions eg. opening storage cupboards in search of the toilets. Brief mid night transit of Dubai airport, Emirates flight to London Heathrow landed 7AM, passed through Customs unnoticed. National Express bus to Bristol bus station where the tea and other trade items were briefly depoted at the Cube Microplex over 2 nights. To cut a long story short, the tea then departed Bristol on March 1st, flying Bristol-Newark, train to New York Penn Station, overnight stay at the home of Natalie Jeremijenko on 29th st, shuttle to JFK airport, flight to Calgary and a further shuttle to the Banff Centre where the tea enjoyed a 4 week haitius in the Lloyd Hall hotel room sidetable drawer. Back to Calgary airport by shuttle on 29 March the tea flew on to San Francisco and travelled by car to Fell street in the Upper Haight, from where it departed at dawn 2 weeks later via 21 Hayes bus and Amtrak coach to Emeryville, connecting train through the Central Valley to Bakersfield and connecting bus service to Los Angeles Union station, arriving exactly as scheduled at 425PM on April 16. Pickup courtesy of Jenna Didier's pickup truck from the station forecourt, drove to M&A on Silverlake Blvd where the tea was delivered in a blaze of southern california sunshine.

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