I’m pissed off with the 2021 calendar now, it’s going in the bin.
I put the new one on the same hook (21 over 22) ready for the unveiling on 1st
of January and the weight of the two calendars pulled the hook off the fucking wall.
The packaging said the plastic hook was good for 10kg ...... deceptive packaging, because while the hook may be, the stupid 3M adhesive isn’t good for even two calendars.
BTW, it’s a nice 2022 calendar guys, thank you.

Calendar now arrived. Beautiful work. Thanks Jo & Thomas.
(Aus post tried its hardest to inflict some damage, but only managed to scrunch one corner slightly. Nothing to worry about, but I think they'll be annoyed they didn't at least bend it in half

Some are still outstanding though - but in general a far better situation as last year ...
Cheers,

Grant did say it was like herding cats......

Chris,
by cat herder, Grant meant reminding, following up and chasing the whole caboodle with the folks on the forum here.
But what I mean now is the sometimes lousy feedback from the tracking and tracing of the parcels - especially from Australia these are not reported back into the system and we only find out about the arrival of the parcels when the recipients report here.
This service isn't exactly what we would call a good one, we will report this back to DHL ...

Mission accomplished!
We are ONE LAVERDA family and stick together - no matter what, no matter which laverda or motorbike topic!
I hope that you will be fit again by the start of the next motorcycle season at the latest and that we will meet with our Laverdas someday.

This is praise that Thomas deserves, he's worked out the safe packaging!
Only a few are in transit, but altogether a far better situation compared to last year!

Status as of December 16:
Out of 70 packages, 63 have reached the recipient. That corresponds to 90%.
7 shipments are still in delivery.
Info from DHL:
Due to the currently very limited transport capacities, we will be shipping parcels by sea to Canada, the USA, Australia and New Zealand until further notice. We would like to point out that significant delays are to be expected.
Canada Post has temporarily suspended deliveries in British Columbia due to flooding. This is related to severe flooding, which has led to closings on numerous railway lines and highways since November 17th.
In Australia, a temporary nationwide strike by FedEx employees has adversely affected parcel delivery.

Hi Jo and Thomas. I enquired at the Post Office yesterday and yes the calendars were there!!!!
They look fantastic and came through in perfect condition.
Many thank for your efforts in producing and distributing to the Laverda Cats around the world.

Received my calendar from the post office this morning.
I now have cause for celebration on two counts.
Firstly, that the calendar emerged from the maze that is the SA postal system.
And, secondly, because it is, once again, such a great edition.
Thanks to all the contributors and, especially, to our our two director/producers, Jo and Thomas.

What a superb production and despatch operation - we're fortunate to have such committed individuals here on LF.
I know my calendar arrived safely some time ago whilst I was away. Opened yesterday - what a treat.
Thanks both, and of course the original photographers.
