Alas, the English squeaky bastard pronounces his name 'pierce' according to some bugger on the internet. A.J. Ayer's? Walter de la Mare's? John Clare's,The Comte de la Fer's (if you know your Alexander Dmas, which I'm sureyou do). Re cheques/checks. I change many an Australian cheque, though it's true by robber Baron of a bank (HSBC) takes FIVE POUNDS for doing this. Perhaps American banks are more generous (hah!) I think you can endorse said cheque/check to Whitworth who can then cash it in Whitstable on his weekly visit there. I will check/cheque. He can then buy dollars there and send the cash back across the Atlantic. This is for the benefit of other winners. Specuial relationship. Of course in your case, Sam, we will meet face to face and the business can be transacted on that basis.
