This may seem a slightly strange greeting; however, you know when you get one of those songs in your head that just won't go away. Well at the moment mine is I'm Turning Japanese oh yes I'm Turning Japanese I really think so. So this would seem an entirely logical greeting to me.

Hopefully you are all fit and well and pleased to back after your various holidays, trips, excursions etc. We have had a slight problem today as Chance is away on holiday, Ken is off for the day and Adam (the boss's boy) and Dave (I'm not only the driver) have both just returned from a Stag weekend in Prague and are feeling a little delicate. I really do struggle to understand the need to go that far and to such great lengths just to get drunk. In my day all we use to do was have a few drinks with our mates the night before the wedding, get tied to a lamppost or stuck on a train and then miss the wedding. It was much more fun ! However we hope that our seamless service has continued and you, our customers were unaware of any problems. But if you noticed Dave in a lay-by having a few ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ's or if Adam answered the phone with a Snore please let me know.

It's that time again, I know you've all been waiting with baited breath for the next exciting installment of the 4 Site Flyer and here it is full of those wonderful extra's that every office needs. We are offering some very special deals on the Fair Trade Products (see back page) these items offer all sections of business a realistic profit and good value for money. So why not give them a try.

I am a little concerned about the staff shown in the brochure who have obviously had to leave their office building in a hurry and had themselves wrapped in Silver Foil, hopefully the building is not on fire. They also appear to have been at work without shoes. Perhaps it's a Japanese company where they have to take their shoes off when entering the building?

On a more serious note, a lot of our customers are having their offices checked for Health and Safety, so this brochure offers you most of the items you are likely to need. Even if you don't need anything immediately PLEASE hang on to this as it may be more useful than you at first thought?

I suppose you are all wondering why I haven't been crowing about my magnificent holiday this year. That's because I haven't been yet, but I will be away for a few weeks in early October, so depending on how business is you may be lucky and not get a letter next month. However I will of course make up for this when I return from my Mediterranean Cruise. My sympathies go to all you poor souls who have had and forgotten your holidays I'm sure you are all happy for me having something other than Christmas to look forward to. Talking about Christmas, brings me to the New Year and Diaries once again.

Please please don't delay. Get your Diaries today.

I know you must get feed up with me nagging you, but we still have some customers ringing us up and wanting 2005 diaries, so make sure you order enough, also order early and get the diary you really want rather than what we have left. You know it makes sense.

A couple of special offers before I go. We still have an incredible value Electric Wire Binding Machine Retail Price is £759.95 + vat (page 615 item 4) however we are prepared to accept £295.00 + vat saving you over £450.00. We also have a Phoenix Centurion 1241 Fire Proof Safe (Page 725 item 1) which retails at £186.00 but our price is only £93.00. Yes half price! We only have one of each so it's first come first serve.

As always it's been great talking to you and hopefully it's been alright listening, so until next time I'll just leave you with my meandering: He who angers you conquers you.
