yeah was all in all positive and I got to put across some challenges ive had with our working relationship as well, which was really good for how we work together as we are the two that need to get on. Plus I mentionned as im meant to be team leader I dont feel i should be criticised in a team setting so we worked out some signals between us to help strengthen that.Wealth is not measured by currency0
