Expensive Zentai suits

A while ago, I ordered ten Zentai suits (limited by the eBay seller to ten). This ended up costing me about 5000ZAR (South African Rand). When the package finally got here, I had to go to Capemail to collect it, but I was told to bring proof of payment papers. I got there with my papers and was told that it is still being assessed at the airport and I would have to get a freight clearing agent to fetch the package for me. After getting hold of a freight clearing agent, I ended up paying a bit more than 4000ZAR (South African Rand). Now I am waiting for notification to collect the package at Capemail.

Survived Easter weekend

I haven't written anything for a while. My main work is hectic, my home business had its usual Easter weekend chaos because many people were fighting about my bunny suits for two weeks before Easter already. One lady even tried to take chances with trying to get a suit which was booked by someone else. The message that others have booked it for seveal days does not mean that she can get it for two hours during that time period, just simply did not seem to be accepted.

Note for next year: Kids are less scared by a white bunny that looks friendly, than by a dark bunny that looks friendly.

As every year, I also spent some time in Kuilsrivier for the annual Easter weekend shootout.

Several new Zentai suits

A few days ago, I did a long time major decision to order several Zentai suits. These included a few suits that look like some superheroes and several similar to Power Rangers. There is always a demand for P parties, some people did mention Power Rangers. I ordered several costumes in different sizes.

The supplier that I picked in the end based on client feedback on eBay was Lily_tw which still had the online shop running, unlike many that only stay a short time and can hardly communicate. So far I must say, that my experience with this supplier has been a bit better than the previous two and the communication was a lot better and quicker.

Too much overtime

The last couple of days have been too busy and far too much overtime. Last Sunday I was working nearly twelve hours and normally I do not work on weekends. This was causing problems with my home business. Last night there were website issues and several of us worked from around 10PM until 3AM with being at the office at 6AM to start testing before the major traffic during the day.

One year anniversary of my father's death

One year ago today, my fatehr died after suffering for three years of chronic kidney failure. I miss him quite a lot. Unbelievable how quick one year went. It seems like yesterday when I got the phone call at 1:15AM to come to the hospital. The evening before he was in the final stage of kidney failure.
