Well all seemed to be going well yesterday until the welder ran out of argon gas.
More gas ordered, but by lunchtime today it hadn't turned up.
So delays....looks like the earliest we'll get it it in the boat will be Monday, but knowing the way things are that will probably be Tuesday.
Visited the solar panel man to say I'd pick them up early next week...
pick up what he says...
my solar panels that I paid for last year and that you said you would hold until I came back from Tahiti.
Oh, he says, well, we had a run on those panels and we're out of stock.
Hey now, hold on, I paid for those panels and you said you would hold on to them.
Well I'm sorry were out of stock.
So, you sold the panels I had already paid for to someone else ?
We're out of stock....
Well this is a conversation that's going nowhere.
So what do we do ?
We've a shipment coming now...
So when will it be here ?
About 3 to 4 weeks
Well that's not much good to me now
I'll refund your money..
No...I need the panels...I guess I'll just have to wait
I'm sorry about that
So in the end we agreed that I would keep intouch and he will ensure that the panels will be available for me next visit.
