Talking of delays................ This must be the longest running brush project in the world but I refuse to give up. Needless to say, the brushes did not turn up on Friday/Monday. I have now had to make the decision to give up on this particular company and instigate a refund on my order. The jury is still out whether I will see the brushes or the refund.
Fortunately I have already have another manufacturer working on the next batch and they are confident that they can deliver these in five weeks' time.
