SWIFT SIXTEEN

Post by AFGadd » Sat Jan 11, 2014 11:44 am

HI,

You may have noticed that sales have been stopped from the Swift Sixteen website over the last 24 hours.

Rob Bush of Swift Sixteen has a serious family issue that is taking most of his time and has made the decision to cease trading for a few weeks rather than disappoint customers.

Rob assures me that this is a temporary measure and that it will be business as usual soon.

I'm sure that you'll join me in wishing Rob & his family all the very best, I know my prayers & thought are with them.
Andrew

I know a little about this (having rung up to request a replacement bit for a Gunpowder wagon I was building and spoken to his Boss) so I'll happily join in the sending of best wishes.

I hope AF Gadd passes on our best wishes when he thinks the time is right.

Hello,

Thank you for all your kind posts :)
