though this time it’s a club’s membership book. The artwork/typesetting has been sent to me as a Word Doc, which is fine. On one of my computers, it looks fine: ready to print. However, when I opened the file on my ‘workshop’ computer, the type was all over the place. Can’t quite understand it! Still, [...]
So I took the final draft to my client today, a delightful gent who I would have put in his 70s, yet he is over 90, a couple of days before he was due to venture off on holiday for a month. “I hope you have nice weather”, I told him. His reply: “Frankly dear [...]
I have been working on a book for a couple of months now, for a client who is a retired GP and Clinical Psychologist. It is a fascinating read: usually, I do not have time to actually read my clients work, but as this has been proofed, amended, re-proofed etcetera, I have a couple of [...]
This really is the best machine to use in these cold winter months, 3Kw of heat belting out! Over the last few years, I seem to have these jobs only in summertime!

Rothera and Brereton, my paper suppliers, consumables from Offset Supplies, and machinery suppliers Contact Print Services from Loughborough, who delivered toner [...]
May I take this opportunity to thank all of my clients from this year for their support, and also to wish them a Very Merry Christmas.
Even though the office may be closed, and the answerphone switched on, we shall not be too far away, and business will be back as usual on January 4th.
Just taken 320 pages, 500 copies to my local print finisher for perfect binding: it is another medical book. Three pallets of paper were needed for this! Another recent job: Christmas cards for a local choir, which used photographs of some Catherdral windows (of course permission had to be granted to use them)
I hope it doesn’t cause any inconvenience, but I am taking Mrs Greystones away to Sandringham for a luxury holiday in our caravan, so we will be closed from Monday 28th September until Friday 2nd October.
