Just before Easter, I decided to get my wheel covered.
I had been given a recommendation of a guy who I called up on the Tuesday prior to Good Friday. He gave me a quote of "just under £100".
I told him that I intended using the boat over Easter, and that if convenient for him, I would drop it off to him on Easter Monday (early evening nr Burseldon).
His reply - "Don't u want it for Easter w/end" ?? I told him that ideally I would, but that i wouldn't be at the boat until Thursday evening.
"No problem - if u can get it to me by abt 2000, I'll have it ready for u by 0900 Friday morning (Good Friday).
He did and a fantastic job ! Leather, both glued & stitched - rim & half spokes with a Turks Head at centre helm. Cost - £90
Now - that's what i call real service !
