Calendar Costs

[Grant]

Calendar costs have increased this year due to less than 50% of previous years volumes being ordered.

The total cost has to cover origination, set up, materials and packaging.

This year's price for the calendar will be £8.00 each.
Before anyone sends any money I will write to each individual with total cost including postage to their region.
I will try to do this over the weekend.

As usual I will enclose payment options in the message.

Thanks for your swift co-operation.

As I said earlier this will be the last year I organise calendars as I have had enough of herding cats for diminishing orders.
There is a possibility someone else will take over the organisation of the whole process though.

Grant, it's been said before & by many men far more sage than I: thanks for all your efforts, the calendar never disappoints. Put me down for two, please!

A shame to see the demise of the calendar. Your efforts are appreciated Grant. Cost is not a problem, it’s a pleasure to have a different Laverda on the wall every month.

Yes indeed always brightens up the kitchen! 👍😊🍻

I didn't know you were taking orders yet.

I didn't know you were taking orders yet.

If you are serious ....... oh never mind. I had a few snidely comments  ........ best order fast if you want a calendar.

[Grant]

Bob, I thought I already had you down for 2, no?

Cam, is this serious or another of your witticisms?

Order book has closed, photos going to the printer once I source larger format versions.
Waiting on a reply from 5 folk.

Cam, is this serious or another of your witticisms?

Not a witticism. in previous years you had separate threads for voting and ordering. Info on ordering wasn't at all clear which might explain why orders were down 50% on last year. I didn't realise you were about to close the order book. Looks like I missed out. Doubt I'm the only one.

G’day Grant, please put me down for 2 calendars.
Greatly appreciate the effort and work that goes into this.
Warm regards

Well I posted very regular appeals for orders.
I wanted orders sewn up before going to print but I can accept your order if you send me your address and order quantity by PM.
There has been a delay while I wait for a few folk still to send higher resolution photos.
Hopefully I will receive them by Monday morning (UK time) and then I can finalise quantities with the printer.

[TheWrongTrousers]

i want one Grant. I will pm you

Yes, it's hard to believe the order numbers have dropped so much especially with the brilliant pictures submitted this year.

[Grant]

Ok, a grand total of 87 calendars have been ordered, around half of previous years as I said.
I now have all the higher resolution photos I need in order to press the button with the printer later today.

Last, LAST chance to order if you get your order (with address please) to me in the next 3 hours or so.

Thanks to all who have participated in the calendar events over the years.

[Grant]

Ok, a bit later than planned but I have started sending out calendar costs to those who have ordered.

Cost includes P&P and payment details.

It will take me some more time to calculate for those who ordered 4 or more calendars (3 people).

I am hoping the calendars will be ready some time next week and I will start sending soon after once you have paid.

Prompt payment will help things run smoothly.

Thanks to all.
