Once a letter addressed to me has also been opened, but the money was still
in there. Maybe they looked for something else inside those sheets of
aluminum foil. So I guess it's not a good idea to make the letter completely
intransparent.

If it helps, you can give money to Joe Forster (also in Budapest) and then
have it "transferred" to me, without costs. But then the money is only inside
Germany, and I don't have a paypal account. But I could transfer the money to
another German without costs and then *he* could do the paypal stuff? Anyone
with a paypal account here?
Another option would be to ask Richard Atkinson if he can send the money
inside the UK. I owe him some money anyways and if he doesn't mind if I owe
him some more? Richard, are you still on this list?
