I went to Carba-Tec in Melbourne this morning and the car park was full! There were a couple of demonstrations on that I wasn't aware of. I bought bags full of stuff including some Veritas toys, but I stopped before having to leave the truck as collateral.
The regular Saturday Morning Gents were there; ever helpful and smiling. David even had his best blue pinny on and was serving up snags in bread. Another very pleasant shopping experience at Carba-Tec!
Sob, sniff, I wish I had a Carba-Tec to take my money on a Sat Morning.:C
Nice to hear a good story, other than the parking.
Send your money to me immediately and I promise to give it to Carba-Tec next Saturday morning.Quote:

Cheque is the mail WW.:U
The other strange thing about the sydney store is that they are only open on the weekends saturday mornings. If I'm coming from newy or in syd from something else it's tricky to get there that early.
Victoria... The Woodies' State.
Come on WW fess up tell us what you purchased :UQuote:

Just like Christmas :UQuote:

You will find it a handy tool WW that will get plenty of use :)Quote:
