Bill,
Thanks for your offer, but as you will probably have seen, I have got Abe
himself to send me his books.

Now I spoke a few weeks ago of sending you my 'Sea Songs' 4tet.

It`s ready, but my printer has just given up the ghost. I`m looking around
for another one, so please wait a little while longer. The same goes for Sue
S, and I`ve forgotten how to spell her name, G_d damn it. Please tell me
your name Sue and please be patient, like I know Bill to be. If both of you
would like to send me a forwarding address, (privately if you wish) I will
file that ready for when the postal service gets a bit more normal.

And that reminds me of British Airways, and others statements, that air
business has dropped by 30%. As I drove past Heathrow this morning, into the
line of the flight path, the frequency of landings is still one every 2
minutes. Exactly the same as before their announcements. Something's not
quite right there. But the European Court has ruled that everyone who lives
under the fight paths deserves to get a good night`s sleep, after some guy
took B.A.A. to book. So the night flights might stop, thankfully. Not so
elsewhere.

Sleep safe.

Thanks again Bill,

Tony (Not the dead dingo one).

I wonder if anyone can advise me if the Abe Galper books are available
in the U.K.?

It happens that a coin collector's shop in my town will exchange
sterling 5-pound notes for U.S dollars at the published rate with no
commission (better rate than the 'exchange bureaus').

If you cannot arrange a better way to buy Abe's book(s) in the UK,
you can mail me enough 5-pound sterling notes to cover the cost
including shipping --- only 5-pound notes, however --- and I'll buy them
and ship them to you (if there's no easier way).

Cheers,
Bill
