It is going to be a late night...

Still packing and itemizing. Forms need to be filled in, (photographed) and emailed off before Mon morning (NZ time I think). It is not tomorrow morning until I have had some sleep...

44, nope, 45 boxes/items and counting...
Edit: 4:25am and 53 boxes. + however many rolls of canvas.

On the positive side, 3 more hoods machined up, meaning the 3 commissioned cloaks are done bar thread finishing and pulling out staples. 2 hoods are machined up and of these, 1 has the seams 1/2 finished. Need to be finished by ~Sat when the new owner of 2 pairs collects. Other set will be delivered some how - posted or whatever. 3 "cognac" cloaks also machined up.

Back to the salt mines. I may be some time.

And you thought things were dodgy earlier...

Forms and stuff emailed off about 8am. Bet that made a thud in the in-box.

Still no sleep yet.

Fridge and bed to be picked up in a little over half an hour...

Only realised that we forgot to list/pack one thing so far. Should be fairly easy to add.

Sleep later... Just as well today doesn't need to be particularly productive.

For those chess fans, or those who appreciate good carving, pearl has posted some links to some gorgeous medieval chess sets. If you think the Lewis chessmen are cool, the Charlemagne figures are amazing.

Got 4 hours sleep between 10am and 2pm at which point I had to suddenly be cohearant over the phone to a freight company. Need to add a couple things to the customs form - a wooden sewing box and box with gaming stuff that we forgot to be explicit on. But for very sleep deprived form filling, not bad.

Think it will be an early night tonight I would sew hood stuff but my thumbs don't like me at present, so I will be nice to them and give them a break...

Dinner then sleep I think. Debating over a bath, but sleep winning I think. Probably last chance for spa bath for a while but oh well...
