Your message has been received, I am fairly sure that we are interested. The downside is that our entire trade-combine team was out for the evening. Their yearly drinking on the bosses tab evening, I expect them to be back somewhere in the coming days. For some reason their entire departement consists of heavy drinkers.
Kind regards,
Richard Farbridge, OBE

When the Trading Team gets back in please have them reply. These goods are needed for a project of the up most importance. The fate of Bretonia will probably rely on this.

Sorry for the slow reply; it's a little hectic with the boss being away and half the staff on sick leave with alcoholic poisoning. I've had to pretty much run things myself around here, to top that we've had problems with mail servers, and the tea boy quit last week, but we still have contracts to fulfil.
Anyway in answer to your request, we would be happy to run the supplies for you; however we may have some problems with the Nuclear Devices and Plastics.
Nuclear Devices: not so much a problem, just the RFP can be really funny about things like this, even though we've held licences with the BPA to ship these since the dawn of time, they do like to change the rules, like they did with the Military Vehicles. We will find a way though, don't you worry.
Plastics: they are a bit more of a challenge. I can't seem to find a supply base for these. We must make them some where in Bretonia, otherwise what do we sit on to watch the cricket?!? I would have thought Birmingham or Douglas would supply them, but apparently not; I will look into this further, again not your problem, we will find away.
This leads me on to the time frame we're working to, how long have we got? It will need at least 2 Shires and a Percheron to complete the manifest. A conservative estimate would be 3 Sirian days at least, provided I can find the crews for the ships!
I look forward to your reply sir, in the mean time I will ask for some ExSec staff to round up the ships crews and send out scouts to check the shipping lanes so we can do this quickly and smoothly.
You have as long as it takes. Southampton is awaiting these supplies for a project that has been in the making for a very long time indeed. This is a high priority delivery, but, I understand your complications.
About the Plastics, I know where they come from... Gallia. Getting them will be hard for you but I do have contacts that can meet your ships at a rendezvous point. I will contact yourself with meeting points.
Signed,
Commodore Bentley S Ashers
