The July issue of KAS Snippets is up on The Forum.

This month we highlight a get-together between Chris from the UK as she travels to visit Gloria in Canada. It is a wonderful story and filled with great pictures.

We focus three distributions made by many of our volunteers.

We answer some of your question about sea mail/surface mail from Australia and Canada.

We also have lots of news from The Barn.

Thank you Susanne for this wonderful information.  It explains to much as to the current situation.

I will be including this in the July Snips.

Hello fellow Aussies. I was able to post a large parcel to KAS today ( July 22. Initially the PO computer wouldn’t accept it so the manager made a phone call to the Parcel Post hotline and verified that the budget no tracking seamail is the only Parcel Post affected. The more expensive Standard seamail parcel post is available to send. My cost went up $30 from $110 to $140. I elected to send it as I am already filling another large bag. There was no problem with sending at this rate. Apparently there is a huge backlog of the cheaper parcels awaiting departure to SA hence the temporary ban on accepting further budget seamail

I have several people looking into this at the moment.  In South Africa and Australia.  Hope to have an update for you all very soon.

Oh wow, Wendy!!! That is not good news. We are away at the moment, but was hoping to get some posted when I got back/had a chance.  :((

Bad news re posting to South Africa. I went to the post office today (7th July 2022), and they said South Africa is currently not accepting any mail, so I wasn't able to post my parcel.
