A positive sewing machine post (shock horror!)
When they work, gods industrial sewing machines are glorious.
~14m of rolled hem done in far less time than it took to staple it and she went over the rolled interlocked seam bits as well - we had thought we would need to hand sew those later.
Z is just doing the second top corner - imagine sewing 6 interlocked seams with 4 layers of canvas into a corner. There is a reason Z is doing it.
I get the grand job of pulling out all the staples we spent the last 2 hours putting in. They get to join their failed fellows (definitely more than went in successfully) in a small paper grave. The stapler itself is buggered and I suspect Z wants to beat it further into submission with a hammer or two.
Bed is done, tent frame is done, wax tablets are drilled and ready for waxing.
There may be some eyeletting in a hotel along the way tomorrow night. This may be the most exciting thing happening in Balranald/Hay/Naranderra (depending on where we get to)...
Packing? Oooh... plenty of time...
