Infact never disturb a Frenchman any time to do any work. My experience in Port St Louis was that they did not wish to work at all.
Now the AIS I posted at $170 is sitting in Marseille Chonopost Customs section for more than a week waiting on some paperwork. No contact via email just a short terse statement on the tracking system.
An update. there is no way one can communicate with the French Post except via phone which has as you expect a series of menus. Press any key and try to speak to someone just get a response of "no English" and switched back to the menu. Fine what alternative --- None. Get a fax number and fax a request - on lunch.
Send an email? to what address - again on lunch
So register as a user. Send and email to the response - again on lunch.
The tracking system records -- no response within the time limit: return to sender - fine that is Australia. Next entry insufficient documentation. Sorry we are on lunch.
The international postal union is the next recipient of my emails, fax and phone calls.
Not a Magic Moment on Malua
The blog of HarryWS and my yacht Malua. We sailed Australia, the Pacific, Europe, Caribbean and USA. I built Malua in Canberra then cruised the Pacific through New Zealand, Tonga, Fiji and Vanuatu during 2004. Malua was in the Mediterranean in 2007 at the start of a cruise westwards round the world. After a trip up the French canals we crossed the Atlantic, cruised the Caribbean including Cuba. From the east coast of USA through the Panama canal to Galapagos then the wide Pacific to Australia.
