It doesn&#8217;t appear that you did, so I had better give you a brief run down of the week&#8217;s events.<\/p>\n<p>After receiving the disappointing news from Mr Opara (Cheap flights, Phone Cards, DVDs and Money Transfers) I spent the rest of Monday in the Dog and Bucket drowning my sorrows in gin. At some point in the evening an Unfortunate Incident happened for which I was mistakenly blamed. I was then arrested by PC Morgan and taken to the police station. I was allowed to make a phone call on Tuesday and asked Chester to email you to see if your experience as a Barister could be of any use in helping me avoid wrongful imprisonment. I also asked him to bring me in a few bags of whelks, I don&#8217;t know how prisoners are treated in your country Mr Ikenga, but in North Wales the food served in police stations is quite shocking.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, on Friday morning I was taken to the Court House, where PC Morgan was organizing his &#8220;evidence&#8221;, which consisted of 27 eight by ten colour glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was. I was quite worried by this time, so you can imagine my relief when the Magistrate arrived and I saw that it was Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard and she didn&#8217;t even look at the 27 eight by ten colour glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was, instead she dismissed the case and, with a few sharp words to PC Morgan on the side, we set off for the Dog and Bucket to celebrate my freedom.<\/p>\n<p>So, after all that I have \u00a3128 left. I&#8217;ve always had the greatest respect for Mr Opara, but if you dealt with the contract with Bruce in the first place then I suppose that Mr Opara must be mistaken for once. There is another money transfer agent in Caernarfon, I could get the bus there on Monday, but I only have \u00a3128 left, would you be able to make up the difference?<\/p>\n<p>Kind regards<\/p>\n<p>Mrs Trellis<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From: Self To: Peter Ikenga Subject: Re: Make all possible effort to conclude this matter, Date sent: Sat, 08 Mar 2008 20:36:20 -0000 Dear Mr Ikenga Did you not receive the email that I asked Chester to send to you?
