You should be able to get an International Postal Money Order in pounds
sterling (you certainly can in Canada); failing that, you should be able
to buy sterling money orders from yer basic reputable bank.  I wouldn't
*ever* send cash through the mail--the chances of some low-paid postal
worker scooping it are too high, and they've had a lot of practise at
spotting envelopes containing cash ...
