    Good news, but not without trauma. The saws arrived yesterday. It took about five hours to reclaim them as Simon had to go to two post offices on opposite sides of Bratislava. I assume from his brief description that he was directed to the wrong place initially. When he came to collect they wanted to charge him 90Euros (20% duty) as it was valued at more than 45Euros!

    Turns out that the lady was nice and he gave her one of his most winning smiles and explained it was just a bunch of his dad's old tools and vastly overvalued by the aforementioned parent. She opened up the parcel and picked out one of the saw files. OK she said, but make sure next time the value is less than $45.

    I may be speaking to him via skite or spacetime or whatever these face to face sessions are called tomorrow morning so there may be more information at that time.

    Regards
    Paul

    Yes, but nothing that can't be fixed with a little CA glue.
