Conchita, today I only have a few photos.
It is not that I did not do much. On the contrary
I did a lot. I went and delivered some of my works
to the shop K. She was ever so pleased.
In addition my son and daughter will be coming home
very shortly and I was asked to do a few things there.
They will be on post exam holiday and
my daughter will depart for Sicilly with my wife for 2 weeks
while on holiday, my son attending a driving school
in the meantime...
Coating continued, no photo there.
The first photo of today is the oak
off-sets, ready for final hand-sanding.
These are pine off-sets, again ready for hand-sanding.
These below are an assortment of pieces, including a lot
of off-sets, ready for penetration coating. In reality,
though, these will wait for the rest to catch up.
Today, I drove by the shop A by accident. It was
closed, but I could see it was filling up
with goods.
Right now I am dealing with 6 shops and it is
expected that the number will increase by one,
very shortly.
That must be the limit... I do not wish to be
too busy. The idea is this. If my pure return
from one shop is JPY 10,000/month, then
my average return/month will be somewhere
in the region of 60,000 to 70,000. That is the theory,
anyway...
In reality, for instance, the shop K alone,
when it remained operational, brought a maximum of
JPY 130,000/month. That was a good month, of course.
My recollection of the average return is
something like JPY 80,000 to 90,000/month.
And I was only dealing with her
shop alone at that time.
This year, somehow, the number has increased to 6
or 7. I did not make any significant effort in
shop hunting...
Am I being too optimistic? I know what this is
now all about. It is becoming a game, a game
the end of which I dearly want to see...
