26th April 2012 - "Must be Thursday - I never could get the hang of Thursdays"

Ho Hum - another day - no dollars...
Managed to sort all the paperwork into piles!!  That always makes it look a little better. No urgent bills to pay except Vitis for the last set of wines. Will be requiring another delivery next week so will need to put some money into a bank to sort that out.
Also will need to check the Credit Cards for payment of the Lyme Bay Meads. They should be due soon and are on a card that pays off every month from my personal account. Gives the equivalent of 28 days grace.
Still nothing from CADW.  Message left.
T Shirts in the post today - payment via BACS - whatever did we do before on-line banking?
Abbey National (sorry Santander) have decided to migrate me to their new business log on so that has been done.
The business account with Santander is excellent as it is a free banking service - though all transactions have to be done either on line or through the Hole in the Wall. I can query via telephone in case of doubt - but cannot call at the counter in the banks as that is not included in the service.Maximum of £3,000 in cash per month to be deposited via the cash machine - but there is no limit on putting the money into my provate account and then doing BACS transfer. Generally find that sufficient funds enter the account via the Credit Card machine to keep things ticking over.

Spoken with Bar Supplier and ordered the Lagers, Ciders and Beers for the next event. For the largere events I have an arrangement with McGee Wholesale - they attend and bring the bars, coolers, pipes and pumps, set everything up and service it for free. As a result they charge list price for all the beers etc - thus costing more than normal - but offset against not having to carry the extra weight, spend the hours cleaning and servicing the bars and also they will take unopened kegs back sale or return.

Next tasks - Bookers order : Wine and Mead Order : Moniack Order.
The latter two have to supply the Cow Pie show as well as the PACCAR game weekend.

Nice batch of bio-diesel - clearing nicely so enough for the next event.

Posting that the Wolves Kitchen is closing tonight - will need to shop tomorrow to get cooking sorted.
