#28 I do have some contacts in OZ Judy, some firms out there use our jets and one firm out there supplies some of our lights.

Shipped a bath to the Falklands yesterday which is the furthest we have ever sent one, just hope the bugger don’t leak after all that travelling, would be a pricey service call

I think last post for me will be the 19th December or maybe push sending 22nd

Then the next one would be the 29th an maybe 30th december.

Return to full postage on the 5th January as im not going in on the 2nd January (enough time to adjust the brain cells)

What im going to do is set up an email that when people purchase something from me to explain these postage dates and say its christmas/new year and i maybe in the pub instead.

No bugger wants a bath in December so I am off to the canary’s for 3 weeks,, I think its only fair I share my moaning around so know bugger feels left out.

I publicised everywhere humanly possible my last pre-Christmas (and New Year) posting date from 1st november. I also made it a couple of days earlier than the official Royal Mail one, but I continued to post until collection service stopped completely.

Buyers paid up in time for my earlier posting “deadline” and it took the pressure of being on the last minute.

of course I care about feedback if only because
it effects how you can do business on ebay

to get it into their thick skull ,that if they are not in .
no bugger can deliver the sod.
it is then returned to the sorting office. and if they dont get their butt down to collect the effa its returned to sender
