Not to be outdone, I email her back :) Hello Mary, dont worry about the payment now. You can pay me later. Or you can send the payment with your daughter when she comes here for the music lesson. That would be safe I think. Because the cheque could be lost in the post. Isnt it so? Now she has just replied as follows: Hello Bibek , Thanks for the reply so i will like to made out the check to you befor the arriveing of my daugther so avoild any dealying so kindly get back with the information i ask about as to made out the check asap............. NAME.>>>>>>>>>>>? ADDRESS.>>>>>>>>>.? PHONE NUMBER............? THANKS, AWATING YOUR REPLY ASAP Now I am thinking of wasting this "woman"'s time for fun. I will keep you posted on my reply to her and her reply to that. Meanwhile if someone has any suggestion on how to waste her time pls let me know.
