September 2010
Hi Goina - That's great thank you. My partner Len is Maori and I've ordered the carving for his birthday on Thursday. I hope that it will leave him feeling closer to his spiritual home. Warm wishes...

Hi Goina - Thank you for emailing and order confirmed! Working in San Francisco & living just north of the Golden Gate Bridge makes me feel for you all with this huge earthquake - our fingers are always crossed for our own sake! So I hope the recovery goes well. And thank you for pointing out Greg's bowls in your newsletter - the one I ordered will be a lovely birthday present for my Mom's 70th in November. You can keep the spifes if you like - I have plenty already (4)! They are very cool though so if you already packed them up with the bowl, don't worry. Just trying to save some for your other customers ;-) Thanks again,

Hi Goina - The goat family arrived safely early this evening and are now 'resting' in the garage until I get the garden that they will sit in sorted out, which will not be until the rain has stopped, if it ever does! Luckily they arrived just as my husband and I got home or else the courier driver would not have had a hope of getting them out of the truck as they were all packaged together. PS: they look fantastic and once I have them in the garden I will send a photo.
Kind regards

Hi Goina - Thank you for dispatching my order so promptly. It arrived safe and sound this afternoon. I happened to be home sick when the post man arrived. The pukeko’s are lovely. I ordered one for me and one for my friend. I will wait until I get back from holiday before I put him in the garden. The spifes will come in really handy as I quite often take a kiwi to work for my lunch. Yet again you have come up trumps with your wonderful items. I will wait until a little nearer xmas to order the xmas decorations and some other items. The weather here is rotten. Rain and wind. I can only hope the weather improves for my holiday next week. I hope you are well and that your business continues to do well also. Best Regards

Hiya Goina! My package arrived today. The resin pieces are lovely (as I knew they would be!) and you may or may not want to know that I intend to hang them up someplace, either suspended from my ceiling or perhaps in my fig tree, which I have a variety of ornaments in for when it's bare-branched in the winter.

I told my brother that when my nephew has chewed his way through his first beautiful green New Zealand bandanna (which, by the way, is in Hawaii right now on vacation with the family) that we will "plant" it and he can "grow" a new one now that I have a lovely replacement at the ready if it's ever needed.

Thanks again for doing what you do. I'm going to give one of the special kiwifruit utensils to a friend of mine. She'll love it.

Goina,
The mere turned up today on my desk, much to the amusement of my colleagues who (rightly) seemed very intimidated by it!  Thanks for your help, it is fantastic and we can't wait to present it to the intended recipient. Kind regards,
