What A Difference A Week Makes

By on 10-18-2008 in Gorjuss Products, Ramblings, Sig Tag Stuff, Updates

  Well we made it home in one piece, and what did we find…. I mean we leave you guys alone for 5 days and look what happens!!!! Anyway I have a lot of updates for you…

We’ve Just Come Home From A gorjuss Holiday.

So its out with the dull and boring photo’s… seeing as the rest of our family is hiding from us, you guys will have to do…

We went to Center Parcs and enjoyed a week of wild life and relaxation with much walking and frightening scary creatures…. I shall share the horrors of Center parcs with you now…

EEEEEEEEEK A Tree

This is where they make nature, its a factory where they produce badgers and red squirrels, pheasants take a while and they have a tree factory further down the site.. its quite an operation they are running.

A Gnome

This is one of the night watch Gnomes, they patrol the park with magical powers of moaning and demanding sweeties!.

Another Tree Produced

This park worker has just finished adding the bark to the newly produced tree behind him, note that some of the tree’s rings have rubbed off on his clothing. At the end of the day the workers are forced to take a mud bath.

The Vicious Pond Beasts

These horrific security devices cover all watered areas patrolling in circles giving out a terrifying noise…like bones cracking…well quaaaaaaaaaaaacking.  Eeerie place..

In summary, the park is terrifying and every minute was filled with fighting for survival. Well actually it was wonderful and Suzy, myself and the Suzette’s had a great time with no fear, just wonder at nature and enjoying the true beauty of wildlife.

ps. Suzy walked home in the dark evenings terrified she may meet a badger after the story told to her by her brother in law…. If I could have made a badger noise I would have…. anyone know how to make a badger noise??

E-CHECKS UPDATE

We have decided to run a trial until the 31st October of accepting E-Checks as payment through our GorjussArt.com shop, it will also affect Etsy shopping too, and here are the reasons why we didnt accept it.

E-checks from Outside the UK take up to 10 (TEN) days to clear fully.. this means your purchase will not be available to you for until up to TEN days.  This has a nightmarish factor trying to keep an eye on your orders. The shop should do this automatically but this trial will show us. On the 31st of October we will hopefully have a good idea of how it is working out, if its going well then we will obviously keep it as a payment option. If not then we have to look into other options…

For any assistance with E-checks we have a nice email address of echeck@gorjussart.com also use this email address to chase up the progress of your e-check.  We hope this trial goes well and it is now OPEN!!! Good luck.

MSN GROUPS CLOSING??

I mean what did you guys do to MSN????  Anyway this is probably the biggest issue facing the PSPing groups with most of them being MSN.  Of course there are lots of other groups out there, and the msn groups have the option to move to the new replacement as and when it all happens.  In reaction to this our Official group “Just Gorjuss” has decided to move to our very own hosted forum  ?.·:*¨¨*:·.Just Gorjuss.·:*¨¨*:·.?. If you are a member of Just Gorjuss then the managers will be the point of contact with regards to this move. Please note: Just Gorjuss msn group is staying open untill MSN close the groups, so there is no need to rush to the forum. Just Gorjuss management will keep you all informed.

We feel that offering this venue will be a good secure and reliable place for your shares of tags etc, but most importantly we want to ensure you don’t panic about these changes and that you are all patient to see what options best suit you.

The Forum is open to all and the verification process is fairly simple, any problems then please drop us a mail and we will try to assist you.  The forum is not related to gorjussart.com shop and the login and user details are not linked.

MURRAY MANIA

He ONLY BLOOMIN DUN IT!

Our tennis star Andrew Murray has today beaten Roger Federer to win his way to the Madrid Masters tennis tournament final.  He faces Gilles Simon who played an amazing match to put Nadal out… So this final will be a spectacle to behold… wish Murray well..
