[GZG] [OFFICIAL] Thank **** that's over.... ;-)

...By which I mean Salute, Triples and the subsequent catching up with orders!

The scheduling of arguably the two biggest UK shows on consecutive weekends
was always going to make things tricky for those of us traders who regularly
attend both, but in the end it all went off
more smoothly than we could ever have hoped for - we even managed to
get most things re-stocked in the four working days we had between
the two events!

Salute was as good as usual, but it was Triples that was the really
big surprise for us - more than 30% up over last year, and by far our
best year at that show ever!

After that, we came back to possibly the biggest pile of orders that we've
ever had to deal with at one time, but after throwing ourselves into it over
the last four days we've managed to clear ALL of them in time to relax a
little over the Easter long weekend. So, we're up to date again, all orders
have gone out (including a couple that came in today and were out in the mail
within an hour or so!) and we're ready to start back with a clean slate after
the Bank Holiday.

Hope you all have a great Easter, and don't eat TOO much chocolate*!
