Nice one mate but Techo Visual have done a great job on the CD's, the info poster thing isn't too bad either  |

I have received an email from TechnoVisual and they have completed the CD, the courier will be delivering them on Monday! Shame... I'm going to be at work next week, hope I can sort something out with them, as these courier firms can just dump it with anyone who lives on the street  I've had it before when someone down the street has knocked on the door with one of my parcels?? I didn't even know it has come...no card through the door or anything! Even had TWO parcels delivered to the wrong towns before!! I could go on and on about couriers and the royal mail  I'll try and sort it... anyway all going well, the winners will have their CD package by next weekend - Cheers |

Ha yeah tell me about it Ant. Update on the CD package, I final had a go at putting the "sailor" on the flag packaging... I just couldn't do it as a screen print after all, the materials and tool needed kept adding up, so I looked for a cheaper and as a matter of fact, easier option, I used some top quality fabric transfer paper that I already had  and this kind of transfer seals the image into the material! Could definitely use them for a t-shirt... anyway, it really looks good:  I've been carefully cutting the sailor out - the edges are noticable when it's been applied to the flag but I quite like the effect and the picture doesn't do it justice to be honest Now... how do you use this bloody sewing machine??? |

Bad thing is I was home early today, if only I had known  Oh well, can't grumble, right the CD's... All going well for Friday, I'm hoping to get them all packaged for the Saturday post but I can't see it being any later than next Monday for me to post and then they will be in your mitts by Wednesday at the latest |

I'm pleased to say I now have all the CD's in my possession... hooray  I started to package them up yesterday evening but after a while realised I wouldn't get them out in today's post but we kind of knew that anyway... One thing that I've totally forgot about is the packaging for sending them!! After all that I let that pass me by, just didn't think  I will go into town today and see what I can find, if there is nothing suitable I'll have to order from the net, which will delay the sending again, I'm very SORRY. Shoot me down.... |

I'm afraid to say I couldn't find any suitable mailers in my town, it's bloody rubbish! So I have ordered them off the internet and will be approx 4-5 days before I get them, so sorry for my schoolboy error  As Ant said though, it will be worth the wait  |

Stayed in all day and not a single bit of post! Forgot to say the other day, whilst impatiently waiting for the mailers I ordered some large jiffy bags that will do the same job (got 10 for the price it would cost to buy just 1 in my town!) So it's down to which ever turns up first |

My patience is wearing very thin now, it's been so long since I ordered, well it seems like it anyway, the CD packages are starting to gather dust! Both my orders have been dispatched but nothing to report, starting to get paranoid that I will never see either of them |

Sorry I haven't been on here all week, been working hard and getting home late, so no time for anything  I got a card through the door last Saturday when I was out, it said 2 packages so it must be both the mailers and jiffys! By the time I got home I had missed the last collection time for the sorting office, not been able to collect this week either. I'll be down there first thing though and will get all the CD's in the post before the 11.30 collection time, that will mean all going well the winners will receive their prizes on Monday. I'm going to send them all 1st Class Recorded, so it will need to be signed for, don't worry if you miss it as you'll get a card and will have to collect from the sorting office Sorry it's dragged on a bit, with all the post strikes, then my mistake by not ordering the mailers until late didn't help but it's all good now.... can't wait to hear your feedback. Good Times Are Calling! |
