Hopefully, we'll probably ask the council to come and have a look at it once we're all settled in.

What I should have said first was:

What a brilliant piece of organisation and a super new workplace!

Congratulations!

Thanks, you'll have to come visit if you're ever in the area.  We've got a bit to do to get the shop and gaming room all setup but we'll get there with it.

Completely agree! Well done - all your hard work appears to have paid off handsomely.

Yes. Fourthed. (is that a word?)

And my little order has been dispatched as well.  Which apart from being good in its own right puts you ahead of another supplier (different scale) who has not yet fulfilled one in the same timeframe despite NOT moving, modernising, refurbishing old premises, arguing with landlords, posting to social media, ....

I must remember this when the next WSS or Wargames Illustrated survey comes out.

Apologies for the lack of updates, we're working through some small fiddly jobs at the moment which don't make much difference visually, so photos/updates wouldn't look too impressive!  So, over the past few days:

Saturday we went and picked up all of the fire doors for the new rooms/corridor, so we'll start fitting these on Friday.

Monday was spent mainly finishing off the plasterwork and sanding it all down ready for painting, which we started today with two coats done.  It'll need one last coat tomorrow and then I'll put some trim around the windows and tidy everything up a bit.

We took a couple of hours today to get the shop tidied up a bit as well.  It had mainly been used as a bit of a dumping ground while we found homes for things but with the rooms starting to come together now we thought we might as well set it up like our show stand and then we can see what's what.  There's a lot of empty hooks here which we'll need to get filled up before we head off to the first show post-Covid (which is currently scheduled to be Hammerhead) and then we'll need fresh stock throughout once we start fitting out the shop.

And we're also continuing to plough through the orders with 100 sent out so far this week and another 55 on the side for Thursday's post.

Ooh! the shop looks good, almost makes me want to make the 500 mile round trip just to visit the shop to add more stuff to the Himalayas sized painting mountain

Great that you'll have a shop on site, ditto a games room 8).
