07/06/2006 - Eve and Osca have gone "Walkabout"!!!
"Walkabout" - defined as an Australian term meaning "a journey undertaken without notice or warning, of no fixed duration, with no particular destination in mind and usually undertaken for reasons of spiritual well being.
This is not to say that they have left for good, just having a bit of a break after 20 years of developing and running Osca Services.
Appropriately, this coincides with son Luke taking over the running of the business. A capable team has been built up that is able to confidently handle all your needs and wishes.
This journey would not be possible was it not for your loyal custom, encouragement and support, so appropriately they would like you to join them on their journey. Just visit the "Walkabout-Talkabout" blog.
The Osca team and I are here to look after you while they're away.

7th Mar 2006 - please note
Last three puzzles have been solved extremely quickly after being posted.
I have recieved a number of emails suggesting the puzzle is too easy to solve and consequently a lot of our regular players are missing out on the opportunity. In view of popular demand, I will try to make the puzzles a little harder to solve.
Your feedback is always appreciated.
Good luck with puzzle 17 - coming on the 13th of March.

The Will County Sheriff's Department has laundered as much as $200,000, using young men and women to take creases out of the cash.
The extensive operation entailed the launderers — members of the department's Explorer Scouts program — ironing bunches of bills this week so the confiscated currency could be put through a counting machine.

Although probably the easiest of duties left to me by our webpage programmer (Luke) while overseas, I have not been able to keep up with a regular 'Osca News' update. We have been rather busy and being short by one very capable young man, keeping up with all of his usual duties and managing the rest keeps us on our toes with little time to spare.
Sorry,
Osca.

The 'Where in Melbourne' puzzle is proving to be quite successful in attracting more people to our website.
I think all the bugs are ironed out so all should go well when later this week the new signwriting is ready for the back windows of our delivery vans, promoting the puzzle.
It'll be interesting to see what the response will be.

It's something I've wanted to do for a while, having drawn the little helpers some 10 years ago :).

05/07/2005 - New Service trial.
Recently a customer requested a booking for a specific time (ie. 6:15pm). Usually, we can have our delivery van at the customer's door within a half an hour of the booked time.
The concern obviously is that when a customer puts their ironing out for collection, it is a good idea that our driver arrives within a short time of when they are expected, so that the ironing does not remain unattended for an extended time.
However, Melbourne traffic can be erratic. Right now, during school holidays for instance, a delivery run can take an hour less then usual. When there is a problem on the Monash freeway and surrounding roads suddenly teem with cars looking for a way around the run can take up to an hour more than usual.
We have an in-house system where the delivery drivers periodicaly sends an SMS to our office during the run. That way, should something go amiss or a customer needs to know how far the driver is, we can quickly assertain where everyone is and alter the run if need be.
In the same way, we thought it would be convenient if our driver sent an SMS message ahead to a customer let's say 10 minutes before they get there.
Over the next few weeks, we'll be trialing this method to work out whether it actually would be a convenient addition to our service and improve the way we can pickup and deliver the ironing in a more convenient way.
If you'd like to participate, just let us know and we'll add your number to the driver's list.

It's school holiday time in Melbourne. The weather has been kind and dumped some snow on the Victorian ski slopes so a good portion of Melbourne's population (including some of our clients) have migrated to the highlands.
Consequently things are a little quieter in our ironing workshop, which is just as well as it is June, end of year financially and there is a lot of office work to contend with.
Melbourne's traffic seems to be down by a good third too. A good thing considering we've had a week of morning (pea soup) mist and a haze that hangs about all day so fewer cars on the road also means less emissions and cleaner air.

A new link to the WishList from 'About Osca'.
A new link to Ironer award rates - Wagenet and a broader explanation of the service choices added to the WishList.
Osca has been filling in on Nadia's run and got a chance to catch up with a lot of customers over the last two weeks.
Enna's (one of our ironers) finger has healed and she's back on board.
The new Dry Cleaner (Penguin - Bulleen) is fitting in with our demands very well and we've already had feedback from customers to say so. Seems like it was a good decission :)
Dispatch and van loading procedures have been updated to make sure our drivers make ample use of the van hanging racks, so that customer's garments don't get squashed during transport.
Luke's adventure continues. He's still at Mcleodganj, 12 km from Dharmasala and has sent over some sample customer gifts. Not a bad idea to say 'thank you' to our customers every now and then, so keep an eye on your baskets over the next month or so.
Also the new dry cleaning bags have been ordered and are being shipped from India and should be here before the end of the year.

Gaborone South Africa.
A dinner party at the home of the South African deputy high commissioner to Botswana was ruined when guests were seriously assaulted with an iron during a robbery in Gaborone on Thursday.
High Commissioner Eunice Komane said her deputy, Ben Joubert, had invited three couples to his home for dinner.
Komane said the first couple had already arrived when five robbers came in behind the second couple. Three of the robbers were armed and the five set about assaulting and robbing the guests.
"They were very badly assaulted and burnt with an iron, everything they could lay their hands on was stolen, including jewellery and watches" Komane said.
Joubert and his injured guests were treated but were not admitted to hospital.
Komane said a "very large wave of crime" had recently hit the city of Gaborone, with the trend of undressing victims and "ironing them" on the increase.
- what next ? I don't think it is a service we are about to offer any time soon. O.

One of our ironers has injured their hand and has been out of comission for a week. Thankfuly, the injury was not too severe and our ironing team is back to full strength. As ususal, we have found a way of making sure all the ironing got ironed and delivered on time. No customers were disadvantaged and all deliveries, ironed to perfection have gone out on time.
Luke's adventure continues. He's now at Mcleodganj, 12 km from Dharmasala where he got to see the Karmapa Lama.

Wow, the fastest solution in the history of the "Where in Melbourne" puzzle :).
A very keen eyed H.M. sent us the solution "It is a gargoyle on the fascade of the Forum Theatre, corner of Flinders and Russell Street." less than 24 hours after the puzzle was posted. Well done.
The next puzzle will be posted Monday 13th June.
An old saying, "It's the early bird that gets the worm" comes to mind.
The advice is, next time you're on the road, look around, you never know what the next puzzle will be of and above all, if you know the solution or think you know, don't leave it too late to e-mail us your solution.

Winter has truly made its presence felt in Melbourne this week. The temperature has been struggling to get past 15C on most days.
During winter, the baskets of ironing reduce in size somewhat so we are distributing some pamphlets over the next few weeks, to keep everyone in the Osca ironing worlshop busy and motivated. Currently, we have an excellent crew of ironers so we want to make sure they are still with us when summer and huge baskets make their way through our workshop and we really need them on deck.
A new hint has been added to the 'Where in Melbourne' puzzle so the $50.00 Osca ironing voucher is still available to be won. Don't be shy, have a guess, you can get a lot of shirts ironed with a $50.00 Osca ironing voucher :)
We are not going to have the Osca logo printed on the protective delivery bags this year. The logo might advertise us, but in our oppinion, it doesn't make the bag do a better job and therefore is an entirely un-necessary expense. The savings will give us a chance to absorb some of the rising cost of fuel and we'll be able to keep any price increases to a minimum.
The new Osca accounts system has been in place for almost six months and all indications are that it was just the medicine we needed. In fact, preliminary results indicate we may be able to increase the discounts for 'ALL' forward deposit customers by the end of this year.
Stay posted.
Luke is still at Manali (India). The fact that he is on a holiday (first in a few years), is finally sinking in and he sounds more relaxed when we speak with him. We, on the other hand are realising just how much he's been contributing to the smooth operation of our business :)

The printers have been running hot this week as we are preparing to do a mail drop in one of our favourite suburbs. Here is a free plug for 'Epson'. 7,500 pamphlets in 3 days, without a glitch.
Customer Notices regarding recent Osca Web Page updates and the New online Osca Ironing voucher competition will be going out over next week.
In response to customer concerns, we are finalising arrangements with our new dry cleaner, 'Penguin Dry Cleaners' in Bulleen to take over the dry cleaning for Osca customers. With an equal desire to give customers the best possible quality and service, we are confident 'Penguin Dry Cleaners' will complement our aim to provide the best Ironing Service in Melbourne.
Luke has made it to Manali, north of Shimla after a 10 hour bus ride. Plans to stay for a few days soaking in the views of the Mighty Himalayas. Named after the sage Manu, Manali is located and at an altitude of 2,500m about 300km north of Delhi.
