Dear Shellers
I have recently, and for the first time, had access and used the internet, for
the main purpose of being able to sell shells that I find while diving. I have
recently moved to a small coastal town called Cape St Francis on the east coast
of South Africa, I first started diving here in 1984 with Bill Liltved (Cowries
& their Relatives of Southern Africa) while he was still researching material
for his book, the Cypraea castenea on the cover was the first adult live
specimen ever found. Since then I have always wanted to stay here and have
recently built my home here. I am very fond of diving for molluscs and although
the diving here is limited by the weather and sea conditions, I'm sure that
there must be a market for the shells from this area, Please, isn't there some
shellers out there who are wanting specimens from this area. If there is, please
could you let me know how to get hold of them. I would be extemely grateful as
finance is needed to ensure my safe diving
Yours Sincerely
Graham Tugwell
