Guest guest Posted November 30, 2002 Report Share Posted November 30, 2002 Hey Tess, don't feel bad about the MBE and their charge--I had to show the lady at our post office where Mauritius is, and prove to her it is a real place! Shoot, the people here are so backward, they think Los Angeles is near New York! Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2002 Report Share Posted November 30, 2002 Hi a...I'm hoping the fellow made an honest boo-boo. But the gal at the post office said this wasn't the first time they've heard of a way out, crazy outlandish price quoted from one of the postal-type stores. Love You...
