May 10th 2012 - Unloading and Checking....

Thursday morning - central heating still on - and the rain is still falling.
Up at 8am - seems to be a habit these days and a cup of tea to get the world starting.
Delft seems to think that we ought to be going for a walk - and is bouncing all around the room. I have tried to persuade her that walks are an "event" thing - and that she need s to get back to normal - whatever that is.

Trailer is parked in the Masonic Hall - full. Van has been divested of immediate items last night - but now requires to get the rest out - including all the damp canvass. Not soaking wet for the main part - thank goodness - but damp enough to rot over the next week or so if left. Will have to experiment with the power hose to see if we can clean any of it since it is wet anyway.

Jobs:
  1. Empty Van   [done ]
  2. Empty Trailer of stock to house   [done ]
  3. Cash Up last day
  4. Check event finances
  5. Start new year book on spreadsheet 
  6. Upload photos from event (not many this time)
  7. Video from the "Packing for PACCAR"  photos (forgot to take setting up photos)
  8. Check Mail 
  9. Check accounts for outstanding bills
  10. Check Streamline - Credit / Debit Account
  11. Go through Outstanding TABS and inform customers of amounts and payment details on BACS.
  12. Tax Van 
  13. Check MOT's for all vehicles.
That should do for starters.....   Time now 8.45am ....

11am - rain stops play ...
12.20pm - Van unloaded. Not even loaded Facebook yet - must be a first !!
2.15pm - Trailer emptied of main stock and all the wet stuff and put onto the hard-standing.

[where we live the back lane provides access to our back yard, hard standing and warehouse 13 that Susie built. ( Gallery  ) - however the long wheel base Mercedes van cannot back the trailer into the space as the turning circle is wrong.  Therefore - enough of the trailer has to be empties before we can reverse the trailer in - using the Suzuki 4 x 4 - which really isn't designed for 3.5 tonne trailers!!! ]

9pm - Closed for the day
Looking at the list - didn't really get much done !
Only the hard lifting stuff!!

Nice home-made stir fry for dinner and a glass of Blush - ... or two ...
Will have to look at the last few days and add some references for the time away
Too difficult to blog while away I think...

So end of the day - did not manage many from the list
Cleared Facebook backlog - 129 notifications, 23 messages and 7 new "friends"
couple of nice photos posted


Somehow still remember from the event "Fatal Tastes of Strawberry"
Night
