Just a little nervous...

Trump's new overlords checking their connections, about those frelling nazi wankers in Whitefish Montana (a place I hold dear and once called home), and, something (heart), that you won't be seeing in the foreseeable future in the White House...

I just had a couple of new sails built by a Chinese loft in Hong Kong and I have to row ashore and pick them up as they arrived yesterday. So, right now, I'll have to admit to a certain nervousness about just what they may be like.

Which is not that I did not research the loft, checked their reviews, and did the needful due diligence but, as the last sails we had made by a top USA loft (starting with an N and spelled e-x-p-e-n-s-i-v-e) which we paid a premium for because it was a US loft (only to find the sails were built in Malayasia) and had so many just plain stupid (as in did they even look at the information they'd asked for?) mistakes and issues, that I'll admit to being just a little gun shy where sailmakers are concerned these days.

In the so far so good department, the personal contact and interaction with the loft was both professional and detailed and they seemed very keen on getting all the information right to avoid any possible problems while actually seeming to care in the process.

So, hopefully I'll have some more news to report one way or another soonish!
