Our Worldwide mail order Shipping is in purpose made packaging sent either by Royal Mail, DHL or Parcelforce, most orders are packed same or next working day and shipped within 2 working days.........thats if the packing Ladies can shut up long enough to get them done!!!!!!!!!!!.................
The 2K Team is: Peter Davies IT Director (he's a Welshman and we dont hold it against him) he has a proper executive job down London way somewhere as well as working with us, Ian Voce (Off Sick at mo) who now heads up our on site IT & Shipping he has retired from a very important job in Leeds! Miss Craigie McMillan - Also known as 'one job' - post labeling division, goods inwards, talking to dogs, babies, small children, ex school friends and giving out ginger bread boys Department & is my long suffering partner - (how lucky she is!) However I have her on the transfer list just in case i get any takers for £5 (its gone up again)....................Then there's Me Julie who has joined us about 3 years ago to help out with all the packing, she is a good talker as well! even talking to herself while she packs parcels!. Then we have 'Perfect' Pauline who sits in her 'harry potter' office under the stairs, shouts and shouts at me, sorts administration, pays the bills does polite Customer services, (ive been taken off that) sales and purchases and is very important, and Goes on Posh Holidays and she was 52 in August!, and does not like boats or campervans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....... Now then we have Justin many Jobs (when he is not on holiday in Devon) who helps with everything including bright ideas, shop re fitting, purchasing, order picking, stock control & base board manufacture and does model shows and window fitting in his spare time. About 2 years ago Julie A joined us who has come to help (when she is not dog walking) with the uploading of stock onto our ebay store and our new web site which is under construction by Brian and his team at Electric Design in Leeds ...................................... Then we have Jessica (eats all the Biscuits and likes very tall & very brave boys) who left us to go to University in Wales BUT has come back now after only a year - I understand she was not good at Welsh? and has only learnt 'Araf' as its painted on the roads. In the holidays we have Rebecca who does a lot with the Scouts and has been down to a big posh palace in London for a badge! (its not for washing up - trust me!) and is good at knots and whittling and is very brainy and gets lots of 'A's, and is at University in York, we understand she is on a drinking course?. We now have Tasha (Mini Me) who is Pauline's Daughter who is being 'fastracked' to help in all areas when she gets a bit older. Then there's Lottie Shaw - well she might as well work for us as she turns up everyday with her parcels for us to post - she makes the 'Lottie Shaw'(Have you seen her on TV with that Hollywood chap?) brand of Yorkshire Cakes we keep in stock and her Dad has a traction engine and drives real steam engines in the Lakes so he must be ok! To keep things international and ensure a good supply of Vodka, we have appointed Sergey in Moscow as director of our Russian division we have adopted his dog as our mascot! (if you want to buy any land in Moscow he's the man to see - no he does not have a black Range Rover). We also now have Alison (dog lover as well) who is very organised and works for Royal Mail and comes to see us everyday at 16:30 to collect a van load of parcels, so if you have ordered it in time it will be on her van! However no one - not even Alison seems to know what happens to the parcels after she has collected them as some seem to disappear into the Royal Mail black hole for up to 10 days! Then there's me the grumpy fat old man (Yes our 8 year old Granddaughter says I look older than my Father who is 83) David Watson and I do everything else.....which seems to annoy everyone - they were all pleased when I had a week off in February after my double hernia operation that was performed by one of our customers (they want to ask him if he can take me back into hospital for an extended period) - I am now thinking of ordering a brown coat like open all hours to keep in character and then there's the 5 cats and the dog named Peppa Pig...
After Christmas eve we have decided to adopt Gusto's in the market place in Settle as our favourite Italian restaurant - Run by Matt - its worth a visit! but its only 5 tables so ring and book.
Ring us if you have a question or wish to pay for goods, if we don't answer we are out or asleep or running round like headless chickens, leave a message I will ring you back, if we don't ring you back please ring again as we haven't got your message! (people who want a proper answer should ask for Pauline). We am happy to answer any questions no matter how trivial (like us) and give Yorkshire help and advice. I have been modelling for 50 years now!(told you I was old).........................
I am told we now have a 'facebook' page whatever that is.... which seems to cause a lot of excitement amoungs't the Ladies here. I understand that there are photos of the shop, lost dogs, grandchildren, campervan trips, links to Gustos, Blue Bell Inn at Kettlewell etc
