Just gave my Black messenger a wash. The denim does loose the color, the water turned into a pinkish grey even after the 3rd, 4th rinse after soaking it in warm water (and dr dronners).

Thank you Beats.

Stubborn crew stacking/packing/shipping at the mo.  Then sorting out new orders with Haraki.  Then clearing up the mayhem resulting from all the stuff that came in last week and making room for the next deliveries of goodness.  The hopefully into the garden, 600 bulbs to plant….......................

A certain Scotsman - he knows who he is - has just questioned my competence in an email to Mrs G.

Whilst, I agree with his sentiments entirely, pointing it out to Mrs G has resulted in her rolling around on the floor holding her sides and not doing what she is supposed to be doing…..

[Geo]

I'll sort this out for you Giles - I've been a bit concerned about passthestripe's attitude recently, and I can't have us Scots being tarred by his errant ways

Leave it with me . . .

• Geo quickly goes on line and books flights for an 'urgent business trip'

[Giles]

Now, you have me holding my sides too…....

@elclintor:

weekend of May 15th..

@monday:

can try for a mini meet-up?

I'll be in NY the same weekend for work…

[Giles]

Oh oh.  Mr UPSMan has just picked up.  That means Mrs G can come up for air, which means that she'll get onto the forum, which means she'll see my posts and pics of her (heroic) efforts.  I suspect at some point soon I'll get something along the following lines:

"Whilst I've been working my arse to the bone, what the bleeping hell have you been doing?"

[rocket]

tell her that we had a competition and that you made a glorious victory with her hard work 

[Giles]

Tomorrow the UPS techied descend again.

The plan is to upgrade our shipping systems.  All those of you who live outside of Europe will probably know that we have to print out 3 copies of a commercial invoice, sign each one and attach to the parcel.  Well, you may not realise that, as some copes probably get stripped off on their journey between here and you.

The new system will suck an electronic signature from the PC apply it to the digital copy of te commercial invoice and send it electronically to UPS HQ.

No more reams of paper.

Hurraah…..................

[rocket]

sounds good !

[dasilva54]

niceee! I was wondering why there were three of the same papers together

[Giles]

Looks like Mrs G and I will be in LA in June.  Hell yeah…..........

[deadendpro]

^ when in june? and what about the bay area? i'm sure kiya has filled you in on a little 'something something' he's been cooking up.

[Giles]

DEP - could not possibly comment at the moment….....

[deadendpro]

oh. well. hmm… perhaps i can make the journey down there if we get some official dates ahead of time.

[Giles]

I suspect something will be announced - but it is not my gig, hope you understand…G

[deadendpro]

ohhh….... i see. we shall just play this one by ear then.

[nameness]

I can't sleep.  Someone shoot me.

Please.

(PS - Good to see you'll be in LA, G)
