Marianne Tiefenbach Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2015 11:22:07 +0000 From: Marianne Tiefenbach Hello Nienke, Nice to hear you! If you travel vom Le Locle to Bern you will pass Biel and Lyss. At what time do you travel to Bern? We could meet us at Lyss. You take from Biel the highway direction Bern and take in Lyss exit Lyss north. There is a petrol and service station BP (green). We could meet us there.
nienke terpsma Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2015 10:17:23 +0200 To: kate rich Subject: Re: Feral couriering Was very nice to meet Marianne, and hear about her research. It was rather photogenic, the meeting at a gas station somewhere at a highway junction, sunny weather car boots open, nicely packaged in cardboard boxes. And we got a piece as a present: it’s a great cheese! very best, Nienke
kate rich Tried to send swiss francs cash from bristol to bern. Jiva Lovejoy who was driving bristol-falmouth picked up francs and passed them to belle who flew with them to geneva however a landbased courier geneva-bern was nt found so cash payment made instead via Nicolas Galeazzi who left 200 CHF with his cousin in bern for Marianne to pick up there. Nicolas requested repayment in coffee. Francs flew back to bristol airport with belle benfield who passed them to trader along with the cheese, at arrivals area concourse.
