It was another cold night and Urban-Cub was up and out early for her 5:30 start. The Gorse Fox and the Silver Vixen had a slow start, enjoying our coffee and a quiet read of the papers without the background of Peppa Pig, Paw Patrol, Fireman Sam or Butterbean Cafe.
The plan for the day was that the Silver Vixen would adapt the fabric form the old Roman blind to fit the the track the Gorse Fox had prepared yesterday. The first question was "what's the drop?". The Gorse Fox didn't know. He wandered round the corner and spoke with the finishing foreman. He measured it for us and the Gorse Fox was able to relay it to the Silver Vixen. While he was there he observed that they were landscaping the front garden, and had already planted the shrubs. The engines are definitely starting.
The Gorse Fox had a trip to Screwfix to collect the rest of yesterday's order.
The rest of the day was spent at the computer. Urban-Cub has, over the last few days, explained a number of the problems that the store managers have to work through each week. He started to wonder if there were any apps available that might address some of these. Again, he has found several possible solutions. He will have to look into these a bit further. It seems bizarre that such a "lean and mean" organisation relies so much on time-consuming manual processes for so much.
