I asked for a duplicate statement on the day I got paid for the Olympics, before woefully having to distribute the money to those that needed paying...
An undisclosed sum, I think is the satement I meant to make here...:(
If the yanks had paid on time AS AGREED I would have got around 128K profit for the job, but, because in their wisdom they waited an extra 87 days, and I was renting a warehouse in Germany on short lease, ( boy those guys really charge when you go 87 days over your lease period ) to store the goods,and security on said warehouse, plus the weekly doubling of air freight fees to Sydney in the build up ( this was 7 tonnes of gear ) and the fact I re mortgaged my house to " shoot the deal " I came out with a measly 2, 700 quid most of which was eaten up by the prescriptions the doctor was giving me for stress as the job went on....
The BACS transfer took 4 days to hit my account, in which time I forfeited another 11k in transport and warehouse and security fees. I will NEVER do that again....:)
