And………. it is still snowing we now have over 12” on the
garage roof. Lost track of how many times we have cleared the path to the
workshop and the driveway. It looks pretty but it is a real pain now. So much
time wasted!!
Busy trying to get wheels reconditioned, Clive has been
making some of the parts for a batch of Timbertops, also we have been making
spare bobbins for customers. Within a
week or two we are arranging for two spinning wheels to come in for repair from
different places and have just had a further phone call to say another is being
sent in next week. So busy time. J
It is certainly interesting, we get wheels or parts of
wheels in from all over mainland UK but have also had them from farther afield,
Isles of Mull, Arran and Shetland, Guernsey, Holland and even from across the
Atlantic from USA. Just before Christmas we were proud to help
with the restoration and repair of a wheel in the Falkland Islands. We have
just had a progress report from the Customer in Stanley to say that all the
parts have been re-assembled and the wheel is now spinning and plying
beautifully. Just the sort of email we love to receive.
