I recently received the following request from Spain.
Originally it was in Spanish, so I requested a translation.
Here is what email said:
Dear Sir/ Madam :
We are informed by the Spanish Commerce Office in London
that your company is

Gracias Senor. Please give our regards to our friends in the
Spanish Commerce Office in London. Please inform the
Office Staff, the next time we are in London, perhaps we
could all meet for lunch. Everyone pays their own bill, of course.
To be honest with you Iñigo, I use 2-3 cans of anchovies
every couple of months. I do not feel I could justify importing
a large quantity of anchovies, at this time. If you want to give
me a 10 can discount, please let me know.
pizzatherapy.com is a virtual pizzeria, not a real one. We are
