Title: At last!
Post by: Bubba on May 05, 2009, 02:50:20 pm

I know I was meant to get these last Friday but "the machine that prints hoodies has broken down".

Anyway, sitting next to me is a big old box of t-shirts and hoodies.

When I get paid on Thursday, I'll start sending them out :)

Maybe a drop off at the Foundry/Edge/Works to save you postage?

If you can deliver in the lorry/cab it would be very  8)

More seriously, I'm happy to meet up for collection.

Could probably drop at the works as I need to see Graeme anyway. Works might be selling some tees if they're sexy enough.

If you can deliver in the lorry/cab it would be very  8)
Unfortunately I would probably destroy your road in the process.

More seriously, I'm happy to meet up for collection.
Only trouble meeting people is the bizarre hours I work - am about this weekend tho I think.

The print shop will only print in batches of 10 or more so I need to accumulate more orders for another batch. Now that they're actually a reality and people see them in the flesh I'm hoping to get some more orders.

Also now that the artwork, printer is all set up, each new batch should take much less time than the initial run has taken!

Title: Re: At last!
Post by: nik at work on May 06, 2009, 12:08:03 pm
Bubba I'll be making a trip to Sheffield and will be at the Works tomorrow evening so if you go down there before then and if you want to save a bit of postage then feel free to leave my item there, just let me know.

Of course if it's easier to just stick it in the post then do that, whatever works for you.

I've printed and packed about half of them up now - will get some more done today, finished tomorrow, post on Monday.

Have been doing long hours at work so only a couple of free hours in the day.

Who else thinks the next design should reflect the greatest threat to world peace since the Sharma power-scream.  The schism that splits friendships and pits brother against brother.  The zero-sum game with no innocent by-standers.  I speak of course of calling of the LIME.

Reversibles are good Moose. Twice the threads, half the washing. Booya!
Title: Re: At last!
Post by: magpie on May 08, 2009, 07:51:11 pm
Cause wearing something inside out makes it smell less and therefor not need washing?  Who knew that worked for t-shirts, I thought it was just a pants thing.  :-\

All good with one exception....

Apologies to Ben Tyrrell (soz mate, not sure of your username on here). For some reason (brain fade?) I only processed half your order so am sending you the small tee only. I will get the XL tee done in the next batch and over to you asap.

Just coz you haven't all waited enough, I'm introducing a new delay :)

Posting on Thursday am/lunchtime so you should all get them Friday/Sat morning.

I would like to have posted them today but if I did that I wouldn't be able to eat until payday, or indeed get to work  :boohoo:

Bubba that's perfect, I'm away until Friday.
Sorting delivery for my return is what I call good service, it's nice to know that in this day and age there are still people willing to go the extra mile for customer satisfaction.
Title: Re: At last!
Post by: Bubba on May 12, 2009, 12:56:39 pm

I like to push the boat out in terms of customer service :lol:

This whole debacle has actually shown me just how un-organized I really am.

That said, this latest glitch was caused by my Berlingo. On the way to work last Friday the auxilary timing belt popped off - eek, no power steering or battery charging for you Bubba! No problem, I ring the garage and they quote me £55 for the repair. This would have left me enough to sort out the postage first thing Monday but then cars being cars the problem grew into "The crankshaft damper pully has collapesed" which of course meant more moola and the whole day at the garage. So, much as I love her I blame my Blingo for ruining me this time round.

Size chart is here: http://www.fruitoftheloom.co.uk/Consumer2009/en/find_your_size.php (http://www.fruitoftheloom.co.uk/Consumer2009/en/find_your_size.php)

So you actually probably need a large, not a medium - I'll update it on the system.

All recent orders (May) will be processed in the next batch which should hopefully be going in within a couple of weeks.

Yours is only one of two outside the UK Stu, the other one being quite local in Eire, you've got an Asia exclusive :)

Surprised Buk or Irish Si haven't bagged a US exclusive. And the Oz contingent?

I think there was going to be an Oz one but I never got the order  :shrug:

Are you doing another order soon, as I feel I need a hoodie for my trip to the states...

Also, does the shop use paypal for payment?
Title: Re: At last!
Post by: Bubba on May 22, 2009, 05:11:15 pm

Yeah, should be an order soon - I've got a few accumulated now. I'm waiting for The Climbing Works to sort their order out, then I'll combine the two into one big batch and get them done. When you off to the States?

Paypal is fine btw.

Off to the states at the end of july for 4 months, post graduation, which should hopefully be epic.

I asked about paypal, as I haven't got it. Would it be possible to order one 'manually', so to speak, and deliver some cash (as you're somewhere in Shef aren't you?)?

Post by: Bubba on May 28, 2009, 03:12:51 pm

Wow, blast from the past, welcome back!

If you order one, it'll get added to the next order - hopefully going in next week...but I'll post a deadline up first.

Went on a geog fieldtrip to the Austrian Alps recently.
One of the lecturers had already said she would keep her colleague company in the van that was being driven out so to make the Take That gig she:

Drove out to Innsbruck

Flew back to the UK

Went to see Take That

Flew back to Innsbruck

Drove to Mittersill

So much effort, so little reward.

NNFN! now she will start to send big numbers and to be obsessed by bouldering...

It's not a silly design, it's cool.  8)

Also, Graeme wins regardless of who he's got in the t-shirt, cause he has the limited addition grey one, which I want.  >:(

It is indeed the uberwad Patxi himself.

How much you willing to pay for the 'stained with Patxi's sweat' limited edition grey UKB tee shirt then mags :-)

What! It is said that if you extract Patxi sweat, and distill it to a concentrated form, one drop a day can improve your onsighting level by 3 grades, cure acne, pleurisy and brewers droop, and give your hair a lovely sheen. And can also be used to reomve stubborn grease stains from carpets.

Can it make your hair grow back? If so, I will join the bidding war to buy it - to match the grey hoodie I have  8)

You have the grey hoodie?!  That's what I really want, even though it would be too big.  Show me a picture of it, please, so I can decide if it's as awesome as I think it is.  ;D
Title: Re: At last!
Post by: BB on July 22, 2009, 12:58:35 pm
I wanted the grey hoodie! damn your eyes!

The missus stole my khaki one claiming it was too small for me and bubba dangled the grey one in front of me like a carrot. After I'd performed all sorts sordid and depraved acts for him, he told me it had gone!

I must be owed something, if only to pay for the medical bills!

I think this thread is conclusive evidence that the fall / winter collection will need to include something in grey.  ;D

I like it, I agree darker would be nice too, but I am still set on the need for a grey one after seeing it in the flesh - so to speak.

I know, I feel bad about it but how could I turn down the creator of the design himself?

Friend I was away with at the weekend liked the UKB t-shirt I was sporting (yellow from Da Works).

Will keep an eye on when the next batch starts being mooted and +1 to the orders.
Title: Re: At last!
Post by: BB on July 27, 2009, 12:42:56 pm
+3 from my side.

That's 3 items, not a +3 t-shirt of bouldering prowess, cause that would be very geeky.
