Ian, Frankthepill sent you the following message :-

"The sheeting arrived yesterday. What wonderful service!

Thank you so much for doing this. It is much appreciated.

Kind regards

Francis"

For whatever reason it arrived in my inbox. As Francis doesn't have a personal profile on here, I wasn't able to advise him. So the next best thing is to ensure that you received the message anyway.

They'll just think you know a lot of incontinent people.

Embarassing deliveries? Reminds me of the time at boarding school when my friend asked his father to send him his bullworker (those excercise spring things) . So it was sent, with no wrapping just a luggage tag with address on one side and " I can do 12" on the other.

Well I can sleep through tonight as mine have arrived Thanks ian.

I have a number of cabinets, with drawers. These will cut up and line the draw bases perfectly.
I also have a nosey (but friendly) neighbour who has spotted them – asked the same question – received the same answer, who merely grinned. And I now suspect that I will only line half as many drawers as I anticipated.

[The Merry MillerParticipant @themerrymiller]

The parcel arrived a few minutes ago Ian.

Thanks very much for all the trouble you went to, much appreciated.

I must admit the blue sheets look too good to be used in the workshop.

Regards.

Ian, very generous offer but rather than put you to trouble in view of huge demand (understandable–if there's owt for nowt, i'll be there wi'barra.) I might as well save you the bother and cultivate a local offset lithographer as I assume they are all glad to be rid of these printers blankets when past use.

I am aware how much time packaging and posting can take and large rubber sheets will obviously be useful in my ongoing efforts to upgrade my living quarters to a hovel. (I say "quarters", "sixteenths"would be more appropriate.) .

Should my local efforts come to naught I may yet contact you via this thread for advice or to take advantage of your generous offer but I fully expect my unscrupulous tongue will shortly mean I am awash with rubber sheets (not a bad thing to lay in for a man of advancing years) . Should I fail locally I shall of course submit the required remittance and also forward a complimentary set of soft jaws for a Pratt Burnerd 160mm chuck, a considerable quantity of which (brand new and boxed ) have fallen into my equally unscrupulous hands. That is if they would be of use to you.

This would be at least some compensation for your own generous efforts in giving up your time packaging and posting these sheets.

Very warmest regards

[ken king, King DesignParticipant @kenkingkingdesign]

.. and I'd like four sheets too, please Ian. PayPal payment will be made today.

Many thanks,

Ken King
