Did you party or not? I slept at 10pm. What? What is the point of staying in London if you're sleeping at 10pm on a new Year's Eve? I don't know. I slept at 10pm and it was. I slept at 10. Basically, I was partying till 4. How was it in India or in Dhaka? In Delhi. In Bangkok. Ah, Very nice. Very, very nice. Right. And none of you was parting till seven? Yeah. That's the way to do it. That's the way to do it. Right. Against me. I don't appreciate. If I was up till. You were definitely up till 7. I can guarantee that. Not bad. What happens in Thailand? What state. What goes on in Bangkok stays in Bangkok. Nothing like that. We all go with our family. Yeah. Ask no questions, tell no lies. That's the. That's the thing. Exactly. Yeah. True, true, true, true, true. Okay. We're gonna have a. We're gonna have a great 2026. I can feel it. 2026 is. Is our year. Okay, you guys continue. I'm. I'm hitting in. Okay. Hello. Is he there or. He's not there. Hi. He's taking. He's taking his coat off. Yeah. I see. I see. Everybody is a very presentable way. So that's fine. You don't need to take your Coat off for us. You guys. Yeah, it's been really snowy here. A lot of snow in London as well, right? It's been snowy. Yeah. All over. Yeah, it started. It started in London first and then kind of came north and now it's going back down to the south. So. Yeah, it's been. There's been a lot. It's so cold. But you know what? The last few years, it's missed Christmas by about two weeks, so if we could just move Christmas on a little bit, we'd have a snowy Christmas. But. But no. Yeah, it's happened the last few years. But it. It is nice because it. You know, although it's horrible and cold, it does feel nice. It's a pretty. Isn't it? And it's just when it goes to mush, it's not so nice. Yeah, we can't complain, can we? Can't complain. So we. It looks like you guys are on it in terms of the critical path anyway, but it's just good to touch base and catch up on where we're at and what needs to be done and how we can support. Is Lohit with you, Babu? No. Okay. Do you celebrate New year in Bangladesh? Yeah. There was 31st night break and it is cold like London almost. You know. That cold. It can't be. It's cold like London summer. We are not, you know, London summer. Yeah. What. What's the temperature there? Very good. Want to come? 14, 15. Wow. That's. That. That's very, very good for you guys. Very good temperature for you guys. You guys love it. Sounds gorgeous. Oh, God. But we have become Bengalis. We are Bengalis. We. It goes. It comes close to 15, we start feeling cold. Wow. Yeah. That is summer. It's T shirt weather for us. Yeah. Shorts. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's. It's summers for you. I know. Yeah, it is. It is. Just gonna get another piece of paper. Hold on a sec. What would you have the critical path by any chance will do to make them. It is with. Let me call him. He's not picking up the. Oh, he was with Sudhakar. I've just told him to come. Come and join. He was just there. Give him five minutes, okay? Okay. Didn't you tell them there was a meeting? I did. I think he just got caught up with. Unfortunately. When is Chinese new year this year? Is it coming soon? Is it like in the next week or two or. Is so. End of this month. End of this month. So mills are shutting? Basically, yeah. They start cutting from 20th of Jan. And starts opening February 10th. Okay. It is mainly 10 days, but there are many meals. They close for 30 days. Yeah, understand, understand. Because I think that. Isn't that our main situation at the moment is now with the lab dips and the fabric and the mill situation in order for. I think for the latter. For the latter. Teeth. Sorry, Isn't that our main situation for the lateral T is like the mills closing and the lab dips, approvals, etc. Yeah, we just need to. We need to get the fabric out, get it all finalized before they go away for their holidays. So, Steph, did you potentially want to maybe discuss the situation about. With. With Laura about, you know, the meeting and what we plan to. I mean, in terms of. Are we going to potentially do the meeting? She's got to put in a meeting date, effectively. Right. So how's that? Yeah, well, honor the. I was thinking that obviously it's their first week back this week. Let them get their feet under the table and then I can message again at the beginning of next week. Just say on the back of the email that I sent pre Christmas, just saying we'd like to clarify a date with them and send a bit of an agenda. I mean, I think that sounds. That sounds good to me. Yeah, that makes sense. Next week. Contacting them next week would be a better idea. Yeah. We are also getting our bearings in. Okay. Yeah. And I mean, we've also, It's. We've also been following up with them in terms of the emails and stuff being like, hi, we want to come and meet you. So. So it's. I'm sure they know to some extent. Oh, yeah, 100%. But I just think give them this week just to get themselves back in. In a flow. I can put together a bit of an agenda and send it over to everyone. And then if anyone wants to add in or amend, etc, then feel free and then I can get that ready and get that sent next week. I think if we push it in terms of pushing for a date, but also putting on the agenda what we want to discuss, then they've got time to prep, haven't they? Yeah, sounds like a plan. And then also rv, is it possible when you guys have, you know, just to do a call with Priyanka and you just to potentially, I mean, to go through just the, you know, the fabrics and what's been, you know, from the China situation and developments that have been, you know, that have been implemented for Mountain Warehouse and probably, I'm just not presuming only Mountain warehouse but others etc. So I think doing a thing with Priyanka and your software call and stuff and what I mean how do you feel about that and is that possible? Yeah, of course it's possible. We'll set something up for next week. I think that would be good. Hello. Hi. Happy new year. You too. Happy new year. Happy new year arvin. Happy new year too head. It's cold. It's freezing. For a house. Also. We can see jumpers and coats all around. Yeah. Have you got a critical path you can share with us please? Tymid. Yes, yes. The traffic light time and Action Calendar 1, right? Yes sir. If it's an Excel do a live share. What is that? The coat's back on. Can you see my screen? Yeah, yeah. But what are we seeing? Are we seeing my. My Google search? Oh no. Oh. Okay wait. I try again. Can we see the TNA now. And see? Yeah, we can see a zoomed in version of the critical part. Yeah, there we go. So how do you want to go through this. Pause. Tur. Do you want to go through style by style? Yes. The first style we have. Don't hear you. The fastest time we have that is the woman's long sleeve. On this style we have two color that is dark brown and beige. Both the color is approved and both the color. We are proceeding to bulk production and the fabric will be Dispatch from China 10th of February. Could you zoom in a little bit more please Arnavy on that one because I can't see the. Thank you. So you're talking about the women's animal latereau. Sorry, the animal women's latereaux. Yes. Yeah. So the first bit comment, the fifth comment we have seen last month basically and we are still due to receive the first fit comment for this long sleep they have asked some spec changes for. I mean the format changes which we have did which we have given to them and we are expecting to have this by. I mean their fitting session is Thursday so we are expect to have them by today. Okay. So should not be any impact on the delivery and rest of the things is good with this style. The other style we have that is the second style. Yes. Thank you. Color. Color problem. Just. Both the short sleep having the color problem. The style book and the po Po having some different color. Yeah. So I have already mentioned this one. This one the. I mean this is something blue to. Burnt orange blue to. This is basically they need to up take their style book. Either a style book or the po. Okay. The color and everything is okay for this style the style book we have, we have a style book name Burnt Orange. Okay. But it should not be. It should be. Blue. Blue. It should be written blue. Yeah. So we need to. We need to. We need to go back to customer and asking. That is the slide book need to be revised. Everything is approved and the same status as above style. In terms of. Sorry. Fabric status is the same as the above style, correct? Yes. So all four style. We have women's long sleeve, woman short sleeve, men's long sleeve, men short sleeve. All four. All four style having the same fabric status that we will get the fab. I mean, the fabric will be released From China, the 12 top. So just to be. Just. Just to be clear on this one, so you're saying that the style book's incorrect with the burnt orange versus the blue. But in terms of lab dips, have they approved the lab dips? The correct lab dips? Yes, they did. They did. So it's just the style that's incorrect that the lab dips are approved. Yes. This is only. This is only the theoretical things are incorrect which need to be revised from there. And. Here the colors they changed in the PO and the colors they changed. So PO they updated. But style book in two styles for three colors. They have not updated the style book as per the updated peel. That's the thing. Okay. So we would like to go straight away the next style PK hoodie. Because all four style, same status. Okay. Pick a crew. PK crew. Yeah. So, yeah, Animal juries, kick fruit. So these are the fabric here. Basically we have on this fabrication, we have two style number one, the crew neck and the other one is hoodie here. This hoodie. Yeah. Right, right. On these two style, we have basically three color. You what? Sorry? Three colors. Three colors. Sorry. Yeah. So the first. The first color is jar page. Second color is blue. Again, the other style we have stone and black. But the stone and the dark page having the same color standard and number and giving the same approval as well. So color name is different, but the pantone and everything is same. So now. Sorry for these two style. We are still working out the left hip left. It has already send out today and we supposed to get the approval by 30th of January 13th. Yes. 13. Did you say it was. It's already left. It's delivered to them? No, not delivered from factory. I mean, it is only. Yeah, we've sent it to them today, basically. And we need approval by the. Yeah, yeah. Okay. So here we have although fabric supply, fabric mill has put a clause that if we able to give the fabric approval, I mean laptop approval by 14, they can ship the, I mean they can ship the fabric before CNY which is 10th of Feb. So but yes, this style is only have a little, I mean little sort of, I will not say difficulties, but we need to be a little fast going for this one. Okay. Yeah, I think we're just going to need to really, we're going to really need to keep on top of them. As soon as we know those lab dips are approved, we need to then just really keep on top of them and let them know that we need approval because that date can easily slip over and then we'd miss that date, wouldn't we? So. Deliveries 30th of may, end of may. Okay. Okay. Okay. So let's. If they don't want to look at the left. They have already. Although they have already. In English please, in the meeting. In English please. Okay. Here the, the. The out of three colors, two colors. They approved as swatch because we submitted swatch as a color swatch. They said color as is and they mentioned the Penton as well. So to, to, you know, to avoid any complicacy, we submitted lab dip also. So they can like directly say okay, go ahead using this lab dip or they can say go ahead using this swatch. They have both the options to choose from. Okay. I think best if we just put this instant email to them saying that as it's type with cny we've sent you lab dips but as you approved as per the swatch, please confirm we'll just move ahead with the swatch approval. I agree. I think we need to tell them ahead of time and then for the outstanding dip, we need to be chasing them as soon as we know it's arrived just so we can get that boxed off. It's all doable, isn't it? But I agree. If they've already approved it, let's get clarification that they're happy to go ahead. Makes sense. Yeah. Okay. For both, both these two styles. We will going to send the feed sample tomorrow. Okay. Next week they'll fit Wednesday. So you'll get comments next week. Lovely. Do we want to try and organize that? Do you want to try get that weekly call back on with Bethany? Is that something that we want to. We want to try and do weekly or bi weekly? We need to be speaking to them more regularly. Agreed. So why don't we try get that bi weekly call on the Wednesdays that we were doing back on with them? Yeah, that's gonna. That'll be good if we implement that again. So who does. Steph, do you want to do that or does anyone want rna? Do you want like whoever, however you guys want to play it? Yeah, we can. I can send an email off of her last email just saying that we would like to now that she's also started a new email chain for approvals. So now that we're kind of in the thick of the process, that it would be good to have a bi weekly catch up with them. Okay. I will send that email to her today. Okay, great. I have only last one slide to discuss. May I? Yes. This one. So. Yes, this one. The color. Color is native. Is already approved yesterday. So the fabric will be delivered before cny. Up. So we're good on this style. No issues. Yes. Okay. The feet will be sent. It will be sent by next week, like. Yeah, Tuesday. Tuesday. Why don't we send all three together? We can. I mean, we have a lot of time. We can do that. No issue. No, send it together like earlier if you can send together today. I mean, tomorrow. Tomorrow. Not possible. Not possible. Okay. So one will be ready tomorrow. Okay, send one. Another to send Tuesday. Yeah. I have question. Do you know who Holly is? Like, have we met Holly previously? No. Right. She was a new starter, I think, when we went, wasn't she? Yeah, she just started with them. Yeah. Okay. I think she's the baa, isn't she? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah. We didn't. We didn't. I think it was literally her first day when we went. When we went last time. Yeah, she assists Bethany. Yeah, she's the ba. She's a level bullet. Yeah, she's in terms of that. So she does. Like, there's Laura Thompson, there's Bethany and then there's Holly, effectively. Right. That's the chain in terms of that and to him in terms of the first order. The latro tea for January. Did we have. We had some deliveries or the goods were already made from last year. We have already made out everything. Everything packed. Everything. Everything is packed. Whenever they ask for deliver, we just deliver. Okay. Okay. So everything's done. That's not an issue. Okay. Take it earlier if possible. So should we try right to them then and ask them if the goods are right? I don't know, but they. No, you can use it as an. When they push for delivery, you can use it as an advantage. If you're getting an advantage, do it otherwise. Okay. Because it could just sitting there basically waiting, waiting to be shipped. The one Was supposed to be. One. Sorry, His mic's not on. There was a. There was a once. One delivery slot was to be handed over yesterday. That. That. That is gone. That is. That has been handed over. That is. That has been handed over one month later. The Delivery was December. December 10th. Now, they approved us to deliver on January 7th. The goods were ready from there then only. Yeah, yeah, because they re. They realigned everything, didn't they? Internally. Yeah, yeah. Tried to slow things down. Okay. All right, perfect. So it looks like we're in a good position, so we just obviously need to get clarification on the pk then if they're happy to approve by the swatches that they've got, and then get those style books revised and then we're not a million miles away, are we? Apart from just getting the fit samples sorted, by the sounds of it, in a good position. Okay. Hopefully. Yeah. So next week, Steph, we're going to write to Laura. We're going to try get going. Yeah. I'll send the agenda across over to the team. Yeah. This today, tomorrow, get everyone's approval and I can get that sent first. They can just let them get their feet back under the table this week. It's going to be madness for everyone, I'm sure. Okay, great. And then we can hopefully get a date confirmed for UK meeting. Yes. And then we also just want to get that thing with Priyanka going. And in terms of. Let's put a date in the diary on a week. We put a date in the diary for the beginning of next week, but that suits you. I don't know what suits you that. I'm just gonna discuss. Have a quick conversation with Priyanka after this call and whichever day early next week is good for her, I'll put a meeting in. Okay, great. Bob. Thank you. All right, all good. Thank you, Teen.
