[Giles]

Paula pointed out to me a couple of weeks ago that we would be seriously up shit creek without a paddle if Unity had a serious problem that kept her out of commission for any length of time…....I'm actually after another too.....

[madmonday]

[Giles]

Let me try that one on Paula…..

A backup to the backup.  Nothing crazy about that plan

Did not go as well as it could have…...

hahahahahahahaha, sorry G.

the things we talk about shouldn't be repeated in polite society or to our better halves, hahahahahaha

Tell her the spare would just be for extra parts.  You know, in case Paula needs some upgrades.  I'm sure that would make things better…

FREE SHIPPING?!?!?!

Did IHUK eventually get their backup?

[Giles]

I did, but I onsold it almost immediately to a retailer who had a greater need than me.    I am back in the market…

On another point.  Unity is retro fitted with a compressor and hydraulics to control the folder.  The compressor bust just before Christmas, I do not even know if it is repairable, so new compressor has been ordered - if the existing one is repairable, then I have a back up....

[Unity]

Just to let you all know that the replacement compressor has worked a treat and i'm enjoying the full range of movement in my folder again, so it was well worth having to endure G's cold hands on my pipes.

Other than that it's been a case of the 'same old same old' here with nowt but hemming, rain and more hemming. That said we did have a customer opt for the multicoloured thread for his 634S-Blk today….ooooh snazzy!

[Chris]

Wow, I didn't even know that was an option.  I'm definitely getting that on my next pair.

[ohighyo]

Are you changing the looper thread half way through hemming? How in the fuck did you do that

[Unity]

Here you go gents.

[ohighyo]

Unity, you tricky bastard…..
