    What A Week!

    Well that was one hardcore week!!

    One minute i have time to breath, the next second, theres people everywhere!
    At times it felt as though everything was closing in, but we hung in there and made it out in one piece.
    Thankyou to all my customers for being so patient and not making it harder on me this year. It could have been alot worse if you werent such a good group of people here in Wellywood.
    It is all very appretiated.


    It would have been one of my busiest weeks in my 5year experience!

    Ride safe, and be smart out there people!
    Theres plenty of road for everyone.

    See you out there!

    I tried to keep the work load light this week as there are so many people who have problems they want to make my problem this time of year.The ability to pull rabbits out of hats starts to get impossible by wednesday - so I turned down a headgasket job and a clutch job.I will come back to the clutch job on the 8th Jan,and have an injector pump to fit to a Surf on the 5th.I'll be sole charge when I come back,I'm gunna be working my but off.

    I'm back today to see if I can pick up a few last minute WoFs,but no one has come in so far.But that's not a problem as I have lots of things to do instead....like clean up my office.I seem to have found other things to do though....and have decided to finish off an old bottle of Shiraz so I can try out the Merlot a good customer just dropped off.

    There were a few people who werent happy with me not being able to get their parts in time, but hey... if you need engine parts and have needed them for a few weeks now, Wednesday is not the time to be ordering them!
    That wasnt the only run in i had, but im not fussed.

    Even though we were busy, i still enjoyed it. I dont get into xmas much. To me its just the day before Boxing Day races , but its still nice when people come in and thank me for good year and shake my hand. It makes all the stress worth it in the end.

    And i think your right Colapop,I feel its the best way to do business. The more friends in this world you can have, the better.

    Im off till the 8th, so will be heading down to Golden Bay after Wanganui for a bit of relaxation and maybe a little beach cricket me thinks

    See everyone at Wanganui and or Nelson

    And a big thanks from me to you, Martin, and Pete too for ordering in all those different panniers and tank bags only to have me say "nah...not quite was I was after, not quite big enough...can you get me the Oxfords?" All good now though.
    Loving the CB. In fact thank you to all at MotoMart...front or back of house... for all your help with my new black beauty. Fabbo job...well done! All the best for 2007.

    Big ups to you for going the extra mile for me yesterday to get that stuff sorted half an hour before your holiday started.

    Thanks a ton.

    See you next year for some serious purchasing!

    Best of luck at the Wangas. Might see you there.
