Dear C and B,

I went to the Bank of China this morning, still no funds here!

I tried to buy an IP card or find a post office, a telephone post office, so that I could call B. But it's impossible here. I'd have to travel to Y, where there is a telephone post office to call abroad from, but no IP cards there either! Here it's approaching 1900 hours, but where you are, it's almost noon. If I have to go to Y to call Scotland, I'll most likely have to stay in a hotel there overnight, as there are no buses back to * county after 1930 hours.
So, I took the liberty of Skyping C. I'm on voice and webcam here on Skype, as ********, e-mail **********@163.com
How about speaking via Skype rather than speaking on the phone?
