Richard just to confirm from our conversation last week, I will just order the  small winter jacket and order the rest in the spring.
Thanks Steve

Hi Richard, sorry but when I looked again at the gilet I brought home I found I had the XL size. Not sure how but guess I just picked up the wrong one after trying them on. Anyway, hopefully I can swop for the L next Friday - assuming that it is still there. Obviously, the one I brought home is unused and all neatly folded back in it's bag.

Looks like I know how to take a simple task and make it more complicated .... sigh.

Thanks

Terry

Hi Richard,

Just to confirm - I changed the XL gilet for the L and so that's sorted. Of course, I still want the other items from my list.

Thanks,

Hi Richard Am I too late to order a large gilet?
Thanks Tony

[RichardB]

Not too late Tony. I added it to the order yesterday.

[Tony M]

Thanks for that

The winter kit order has been placed with Decca today. We have been able to increase the number of gillets that we are ordering and this reudces the price for this item from £59 as previously advised to £49.
I have asked Decca to advise delivery date and I'll share this with you as soon as I have a response from them.

Regards
Richard

Getting cold now! Any news on club kit?

[RichardB]

Hi All, I chased the contact in Bottlesport last week, Bottlesport are the UK distributor. I was promised an update from the factory by the end of last week and am still waiting. Will chase up now.
Sorry for the delay.

Hi All, chased again yesterday. Our kit order will be completed by the factory this Friday, there have been "production delays". It will then be shipped to the UK and should be with the UK didributor by Tuesday. I will then make arrangements for it to come to me. Further update early next week.

Spring soon!

There is bad news with the kit order. The reason that it is much delayed is because it has been lost. It left the factory and made it to the UK but did not find its way to the UK distributor. Despite extensive investigation by the courier, UPS, it has not been found.
The order was for the winter and should really have been with us early November but there was also delay in the factory. I would expect another 5-6 week turnaround if we stay with the original order. By which time a number of the winter months would have passed. For this reason it is only fair to give everyone he opportunity to review what they originally order and amend accordingly. Given the timing it also makes sense to place a single combined order for the winter and spring.
Can everyone please advise requirements by the middle of next week, by Wednesday 17 December and I'll look to place a revised order by the end of next week being Friday 19 December. We will of course order into stock as well as for individual requirements.
Can you please share this message with all fellow members as quickly as possible. Not everyone may be regularly looking at the message board.

It's hard enough to manage the kit order without this setback! I agree it's better to place one full order as most clubs will place an order in the New Year, adding more of a delay to the lead time...
