Simon, Oryx Design, is currently curled on the sofa poorly. He has actually missed working today and so I don't think we will make it tomorrow, sorry not to be able to come, was looking forward to it. If he makes some miraculous recovery we might come up still so there is a bit of hope. Sarah

I've got the old version of that drill, I've owned it since 2000 and it has worked very hard for me. I think it may be coming to the end of its life now but it has been so good I will replace it with the new one

To be fair Bob, Simon and I both have iPhones because everything we have has an half eaten apple on it and is all put through the business. Once you've taken into account the time saving of "it just works" and the VAT and the Corporation tax deduction it all seems quite a reasonable cost for...

we've also used Glass Services in Ashford too and they've been fine for toughened pieces.

Duncan, No not too late at all. There is no requirement to book or anything. Steve, I suggest a curry sign up sheet on the day and I'll book somewhere after lunch when I know some numbers. Sarah

Hi All, Just a quick note about the bash THIS MONTH :shock: As last year I will be doing food but cakes and such much appreciated. The most important things to remember to bring are: - yourselves - something you've made you'd like everyone to see - something you've made you'd like to discuss...

I worked in a wild flower wholesalers whilst travelling and was bitten by a spider (unknown) according to my colleagues whose sanguine advice was 'you'll be right'. I was, just had a big hot lump on my thumb / back of hand for a day or so. They used to save the redbacks in the plastic water...

I have an iphone too (now there's a surprise) but the screen covers are pence so don't worry too much about damage. The lack of buttons also means a lack of holes for dust to get in. Simon keeps his in a bump case and a cloth bag/case thing when he's working and it is surviving much better...

Just planning some nibbles for Saturday. Is anyone from here coming? You don't have to be there for the start (I won't be!) Can I have a quick show of hands for numbers please. Thanks, Sarah

Someone more permanent really, because of the kind of work we do, we like people to see the thing through from start to finish as far as possible.

Hi All, We are currently looking for a new employee. I've posted my advert on the job centre today but thought I would put something on here too. We are keen to employ the right person (not necessarily the right skills). As you probably know we are a small family business so fitting in is very...

Hi All, Just to confirm that we are on with Festool for the 31st July in Staplehurst, Kent (TN12 0QY) We are 2 minutes walk from the station and plenty of parking available. I'm expecting a run to the chip shop for lunch.

It doesn't sound enough to me to be honest. 0.3kW = (approx 1000 BTU) a bathroom 6ft by 6ft by 8ft (assumed N facing to account for your 2 ext walls) required 2200 BTU according to here: http://www.home-radiators.co.uk/Radiato ... htm#result In a previous house OryxDesign and I had a (very)...

Many thanks to all of you who have already completed the questionnaire. I meant to add that if any of you have friends or family who would also consider doing this I (and The Woodland Trust) would be grateful. (It would also expand my sample to slightly less 'woody' folk) The 'at' was an...

Bit of a beg really, Mr Oryx and I are mulling over an idea and need some market research to gauge our potential audience. As an incentive for each completed questionnaire I receive back we will donate £1 to The Woodland Trust (max £200). It should only take 5 minutes to complete. If anyone...

I think you need to consider exactly what you are selling: - furniture - design service - procurement advice? (chosing appliances, lighting, bathroom fixtures and fittings and so on) we do all of the above. I normally have my standard terms and conditions and then prepare with my estimate any...

work - that thing that can take over your life if you aren't careful. Oh whoops, Simon and I have just got home. What a way to spend an evening when the kids are away :roll:

we recently did a fitted wardrobe to match some mamas and papas furniture in the Ocean Dark oak - we stained it and sprayed lacquer over and it was a good match and not hard to achieve.

not wishing to hi-jack but Wizer we anticipate keeping ours until they are 6 or 7 or maybe even older. Perhaps there is time? now they allow our kids to comfortably sit at the dining table with us and eat as a family. PS are you coming down tomorrow? your delivery is due Monday

I'd agree, lots more use and 'on display' too. It's not such a cute gift but our 2 have trip trap chairs (kind of high chair things) that grow with them. As the 2 small oryx's are the proverbial cobbler's children we bought ours but these would be appreciated for years (but only from when they...
