I forwarded them to the Laptop Shop and, less than a day later, I was told that the correct battery was awaiting collection in the shop. Fantastic service, I am sure you would agree. But the saga does not end there. I now had to get the battery to Albania. Albania is a wild place.
Bandits control many main roads after dark and the government is struggling to combat corruption.
Postal services are rather less than reliable. The only solution was to find a personal courier to carry the battery into Albania and deliver it by hand to Angela. Two text messages later I tracked down another missionary, leaving for Albania in 24 hours, prepared to carry the precious package. He was based in a remote village in North Wales. North Wales is a lot like Albania.
