How to contact me

My stickmaking activities are now shut down while I get settled into my new home in Halifax, West Yorkshire. There is (inevitably) more work to be done on the house than I had originally bargained for, and it will take a couple of months before I can even start to think about setting up my workshop. This will involve some damp-proofing work in the basement and creating a level working area on the sloping floor in the garage, so I don't see myself getting back into stickmaking mode until well into the summer. Update 24 September 2006: Well, so much for that theory! I can't go into all the gory details here, but a relatively minor bit of structural work needs to be done before I can start setting up my workshop. Unfortunately, this can't be put in hand until a dispute with my surveyor has been resolved - so I'm still sitting here twiddling my thumbs. :-( Update 27 November 2006: Still no progress to report. Thumb-twiddling continues. Update 13 December 2006: Still no progress. Meanwhile I have changed my ISP and my Web hosting providers. This all seems to have gone smoothly, but it does mean I no longer have access to PlusNet's "My Circular" newsletter management tool. In fact my newsletter never really got off the ground as, what with everything else going on, I never had time to compose a proper newsletter anyway. Sorry, folks - I'm now removing that page, but if and when I do have any time on my hands I will try to find an alternative way of setting it up. Update 05 January 2008: The saga continues. Over the past year I've had quite a bit of work done on the house, much of it unrelated to my stickmaking activities. Currently I'm waiting for the Council to mend the pavement outside my garage so that the new garage doors can be adjusted to keep out the rain. This should have taken place before Christmas, but like everything else it's all taking far longer than it ought to. However, once the garage doors have been sorted out it will then be down to me to deal with any remaining problems and start creating my workshop. It's bound to take several more months, but I am hopeful that I will be up and running again some time this year! |
I won't be
able to deal with any new sales or enquiries until I
have settled into my new home and got my stickmaking activities up and running
again. This is bound to take several months, so please bear with me. I prefer customers to contact me by email so that I can deal with enquiries in
my own time. I operate from my home address, and am often unavailable during
the day. Click on this link to email me:
