Sorry. Mal is still having difficulty with his bowel cancer, he has further operation(s) to hopefully fix him up!

He managed to be at the Sydney www show, but it hurt and he is limited in activities, to drive his truck to Melbourne and exhibit is not possible this year; he can ship via freight companies ex Sydney.

Thanks

Greg

Barry Moon of "Moons Mobile Mill" will be taking a bunch of Malcolm's usual stuff plus more to the Melbourne show, same as last year.

Just put some more photos up on the Boutique Timbers website: www.boutiquetimbers.com.au

I'll let you know when the Lot List is available

Thanks

Greg

Hey Greg,

any chance of remote or advance bidding if we can't make it?

pete

Sure Pete.
I'll put the Lot List up in around the 14th or so and you can see what is available. We can always arrange delivery to Sydney later on.
If there is anything of interest, I can act on your behalf, be on the phone to you as lots of interest are sold, or you can let me know a maximum bid for any Lot and again I'll follow your instructions.

I'll be in touch when the Lot List is ready. The wet weather last week hasn't really affected us yet, but rthere is still a lot of preparation, some slabs such as camphor are best thicknessed a few days before the auction to show their colour.

Regards
Greg

Hi Greg,

Just wondering if there will be any arrangements for transporting any purchases back to the Newcastle area.

Regards
Alan

Hi Alan.

Mal will be making deliveries down to Sydney and Newcastle and central coast in his truck, or stock can be left on the farm for collection at later dates and i can take small packs myself.

I am working on the Lot list now and will have it ready on the weekend and will put up here and on www.boutiquetimbers.com.au website.
You can view photos of some of the packs there and we are working to finalise the odd timbers such as hairy oak and Huon pine at the moment.
Regards
Greg
