    We've opened our first floor this morning, pretty much on course with the 'grand plan' that said after 3 years in this place we'd need it, 3 years is a week on Saturday. We've gone from 1500sq foot to around 2250. There were a couple of hairy moments with a forklift but we managed to get the print machine up and in giving us a stand alone print department and a decent moral boast all round. There's a phase 2 to follow involving plasterboard which will come later but all the production space is now being used.

    What's not pleasing me apart form the head injury, see other thread, is the fact we've sold next to bugger all since Friday but immediately after any expansion I always seem to shit the bed so I'm putting it down to that.

    You could get started on the unofficial Forest European Tour 2025 / 2026 merch if you're a bit bored. I mean it won't pay the bills and would likely jinx any such notion of a top 6 anyway, but still.

    It's a sound business idea, Sean. Get ahead of the game. Maybe a range of FARAGE 4 PM 2029 t-shirts too?

    Your obsession with telling us this makes me wonder if you're hiding something else.
    Are you half German-half Welsh?

    Pretty much (if by half you mean circa 5%). And Dutch of course. Fur shure.

    But not French.

    This is kinda true. Never have I seen such a bang average bunch of no marks (in terms of recorded history*) almost exclusively from round these parts. We borrowed the odd gene here and there from exotic far afield locations like east leake and swanwick, but in the main you could throw a blanket over where my ancestors located themselves. The mix suggests we were here when the Vikings popped round for a fuck, but we never gave it up for the French.

    * The family tradition of 'rather die than go to Australia' has some historical precedence. The one family member in recorded history that troubled the scorers, did so for being transported for stealing a sheep. Taken sick on the journey, died on arrival, so no Aussie relatives.

    Is a tough price to pay, but good lad for doing the right thing.
