Hooray we have managed it and delivered everything we said we would before our Christmas break, both sleighs i mean vans are now back safe and sound after snow tried to ruin our last attempt at delivery before Christmas.
I have had two people say to me they didnt think we would be arriving today with there items due to the weather and thought we would ring to cancel, in all our time here at Castfireplaces i can honestly only remember not doing two deliverys and thats when Stu was struck down a few weeks ago and i did two delivery runs and put back two deliverys to the following Sunday.
It has not been a nice drive today and we were both around two hours late getting home due to the bad weather and funnily enough the closer we got home the worse the weather was.
My last job of the day was to meet a customer at our factory who had come to collect a firefox 12 stove (the heavy one) which also happens to be our last in stock luckily for them, they had come from Chester and were surprised at how heavily it was snowing at 4pm when they came.
I enquired if they were going to drive back home but it turns out thay are stopping at her parents in Derby tonight hence the reason for collection.
So one more heave and it was loaded in his car with a 1000mm length of flue and then lock and alarm Factory and Showroom, im now back at home with a large grin on my face ready to open a bottle of Wine (Thanks TT) and sit back and relax for the 1st time in a few months knowing that our work is done for two weeks i am really so looking forward to Christmas and a nice rest.
