          And this what it looks like when we are missing cartons, no complete size runs, so we cant put new products live (or even measure them), or ship to retailers.  So there are piles of stuff waiting until we can move or ship….

            Did something happen during shipping, @Giles?

              Yep, UPS (as do most other shipping companies) ship to UK from Japan (and other places in Asia) via China.

              As the world starts to open up after the lock-downs, the volumes of goods needing to be shipped, is far outstripping the available space in cargo planes.  So, there are delays happening now, that did not happen during the lock-downs.

              19 carton shipment due here Monday.  Got 9 cartons Mon, 9 cartons yesterday and 1 today.  Ditto other shipments….

                Oh, man. I'm sorry to hear! I'm sure that puts stress on top of an already stressful situation.

                                  Are those superblack high top sneakers hiding just barely visible on the table?

                                        Things are a little congested in the sewing room.  If your jeans are being hemmed today and they get covered in oil, you'll know why  😃 😃

                                            Sorry Eli, we have already packed it.  But, a fox had crapped in the garden overnight, so we dragged the jacket through that, so I think we're all good…..
