The new printer arrived while we were out yesterday and today I managed to get it in the house, the box was both heavy and large and they'd left it in the greenhouse which wasn't a problem but if we had known it was coming could have tried to make arrangements to get it straight in. I unpacked it and the instructions were very brief, being Epson it has most of the info on the set up disc. Actually it wasn't that difficult and I'd soon got it set up although i did have to shoot out to Northwich to get a longer lead to connect to my desk top. That done it linked up no trouble and I'd soon remade the master and it came out a whole lot better on this machine and it will facilitate other covers if required although I've made it roughly the same although with all contact details. Keith fellow church warden gave me a ring to confirm the church toilet site meeting was off, which was correct as the builder had gone on leave, the progress this week didn't feature any of the promised scaffold strip out, windows, doors etc, Knutsford Building I'd avoid if I had work to be done. I got the three DVds from the Woodhead pass truck film day finished and I'm about to upload the Youtube trailer clips. Monday the weather looks pretty grotty for Devon so we have not progressed the planned trip for Monday and will return home after the Taunton running day Sunday. Tomorrow we'll set off about 6am and get there before 9am and get some present day film done although I realise it has gone downhill as a bus location over the past year. We will get the Devon/Cornwall trip done this summer. It was a busy day, we had a lot of DVd and cine orders to get posted and lots of stock for the rally to put together with covers, sleeves, DVDs etc then Mandy went to do some shopping around lunch time and when she got back we went to Four Oaks where I used to get all my wholesale seedlings, they now have a retail outlet at their premises near Jodrell Bank and we filled the car, the prices were as good as Lowes farm shop at £2.20 a tray for bedding. We got ourselves sorted with everything packed in the van for the weekend and I had about 2.5 hours left before dinner so got all the bedding plants in the front garden and along the side of the house then fed the birds. I'll try and blog tomorrow but my pal Martin and Barbara may be overwhelming us with hospitality so bear with and we'll probably catch up Sunday. Some more shots from the Woodhead Pass on Wednesday.
