April 29, 2008...a promise of funds

Good morning Patrick,Thank you for the cell phone message. It just got thru to me.. The banks were closed up here yesterday (Monday)in most part of Eastern Europe.. (where one of our bank accounts are based..) Greece and the surrounding countries included..they were closed for the Orthodox Easter celebrations..Everything is still proceeding 100% for us.. and those shares that I sent the copies to you of are proceeding with the banks very verywell. As you can imagine with an asset like that (just over 950 million) as well as the copper (this parcel just over 195 million) the banks arecautious.. but happy with the authenticity and validity of the assets presented.We anticipate the first of the monies being available to your accounts before the end of this week.. so the little bird concerned wastweeting the correct tune..I will be able to confirm everything to you over the next 24 hours or so.. but have had 100% confirmation that everything is fine..and on track. As above I do seriously expect to have the first of the monies transferred to your accounts before EuropeThursday.. will advise transfer details and amounts as soon as this is available to me from the bank.. as I am told it.."some monies this week... lots of monies available to transfer next week."I will hold them to their word.. and then head back to NZ as quick as.. my granddaughter's first birthday is the 12th May..and I want to be there for that..Best regards,Paul.
