Al’s Workshop updates

Another busy day with bats flying out the door but still feel like I’m threading water. This morning released a pair in the direction of Warragul – safe trip guys.

Did some more work on jobs then off on the usual Monday shopping trip including posting those two bats to Warragul I was surprised that 2 x Bats @ 1,2kg was $15.35 when last time 1 x Bat @ 0.6kg cost over $18. Thanks to Holly (see next photo) I packed the items so well there was no need for one of their pricey bags

Back home and out again to do some more including cutting more MDF blanks. After tea ended up doing two hours overtime to catch up a bit – with heaters on.

Al’s Workshop – International orders

With regard to the UK Batman order just checked postage to UK and it’s under $30, not bad considering I’ve been posting Batman to country folks happy to pay the $20 for postage.

So…with agreement about the current state of affairs I’ll take her order shipped without batteries and need to check if Bunnings MDF timber will pass through customs etc….LOL

Expecting a parcel delivery

Expecting a delivery today so put out my post/parcel sign.

Postie(s) have got the hang of it now and even press the video intercom bell before zooming off. One day I was about to toss in that dish drying rack into the recycle bin and thought…there must be some other use for that ?
