Fold that baby up!

Ever had to sit around for hours, folding paper up into three equal parts rectangularly, so that correspondence fits inside envelopes all nice and neat? Nah, me neither. But every time you get mail from the club and it's all nice and neatly folded, with you perhaps thinking it happens oh so naturally like the paper somehow managed to fold itself, it was actually painstakingly folded by hand by dedicated volunteers. Until now.

Meet the club's new Ledah folding machine, which took up residence at the club's office last Tuesday evening. It can fold up to 4 sheets at once, virtually in the blink of an eye. Just to be smart we tried it out with 5 sheets and it seemed to pass that test with flying colours. And best of all, it was donated by the supporters group, which will now enable both the staff and volunteers to accomplish that mind numbing task much faster, and also be able to put their time towards more useful pursuits. If only they came in blue.

A few notes on comments.

We've had a lot of fun over the years with my freewheeling comments policy, but all good things must come to an end. Therefore I will no longer be approving comments that contain personal abuse of any sort.

Still, if your post doesn't get approved straight away, it's probably because I haven't seen it yet.

As usual, publication of a comment does not mean endorsement of its content.
