[sdiy] From Bernie of Electronotes

[Magnus Danielson]

Hi Bernie and everyone,

I ordered, and received, the everything package. It effectively took 2 
weeks to arrive at the pickup place, which is quick and smooth enough in 
my book, considering that it needs to go from upper NY to Sweden.

It's a lovely set.

Now, the point is, it truely is available just as Bernie says.

PS. Sorry Bernie for not had the time to write a message to let you it 
arrived safely, but it did, I've just been continent hopping and working 
crazy sinze.

Cheers,
Magnus
