KIT UPDATE... - Clubhouse - Runner's World

Hi all. Just got back in after my hols last week. The kit situ is as follows.

Wasp dispatched the current order to me yesterday (Monday) so it should arrive tomorrow (Wednesday). I will then endeavour to dispatch them all on Thursday morning so they should arrive with you hopefully by Saturday.

This message is specifically for those of you who are in the current order. I know there are one or two of you who have sent cheques to me and/or requested vests in the last couple of weeks, but who missed the deadline when the last order went off. I will contact you individually about the situation with these in the next day or two. The immediate availability of these vests will depend on whether your required size is included in the few extras that Wasp have made in that size. Otherwise it will have to go into the next order which may take some weeks to build up.

This kit stuff is very confusing so please bear with me while I tie up any loose ends - I'm doing my best, honest!

Any queries at all though, please contact me.

Thanks DW.

Who or what is "wasp" - I thought these were printed already or did I misunderstand.

Very much looking forward to my purchase :-)

BY the way the best way to iron fitted sheets is to put then on the bed and iron them in situ...

Cheers DW. Let me know if my size is in and I'll pop a cheque in the post. How much and who is it payable to?

DW - hoped you had a good holiday - sorry if the vests take away some of the after glow.

Tim, Wasp Sports are the company that make the vests. They need to have a minimum order of 18 (and minimum of three of each size ordered) before they can be made. ie. they are made specifically to order. I have received your cheque, but it is at home so I can't check if the size you wanted is currently available. Can you remember what size you ordered? You be careful with that iron now!

Caz, sorry for confusion last week. It looks like there have been extras made in 32" and 36", but not 34" unforunately. What do you want to do?

Mij, not at all! Coming back to work has taken away the after glow!!!

DW, I ordered one via Lamby, but haven't yet sent my cheque as we weren't sure if my order would be in in time. If it's there let me know and I'll send the cheque off.

Caz

Actually 32" should be ok, I could try it all the same. I'll send a cheque anyway and go from there?

What kit?
I need to know now!

Tim, Have just realised you ordered a T-shirt. We haven't got the minumum order for this yet. Once we reach this, the order will go to Wasp, but it may be some time yet I'm afraid.

Drew, did you place an order on the web site? What size were you after?

Caz, okay send me a cheque for £17.99 and I'll get a 32" sent to you. I'll hold your cheque until we find out if it fits or not.

WW, yes, see your postie on Saturday morning!

Evil Pixie, see the URWFRC web site (link below) for details.

DW. Sniff.. Tim

Aw, now come on Tim, there's no need to cry.

I've just had a quick look at the orders and there seems to be 6 on order at the moment. We need a minumum of 12 for the T-shirts so when we receive 6 more T-shirt orders, they can be ordered from the suppliers.

If you want a T-shirt, order one on the URWFRC web site now.

So dry those eyes Tim, all is not lost!

DW, ordered it through Lamby, who phoned up Wasp. Size 40

Drew,

Okay. Was yours one of the original ones that was returned to Wasp? Your original order shows that a 38" was originally dispatched.

DW, Originally I ordered a 38 but no one else wanted that size so I ordered a 40 instead. This was duly delivered with the first batch and fitted fine. Unfortunately my brand new vest was stolen from the washing line in Minorca by someone who obviously wanted a quality running vest for free. I subsequently reordered. A 38" would probably be ok as well.

In summary, this is my second order.

Caz,

Just thought I'd mention that the vests. if that's what you ordered can be a 'snug'. If you really wanted 34 then a 36 might be a better bet than 32. Unless of course, you like a tight fit!!!

All the best,

RB
