    IT'S FRIDAY YAY :D

    Morning Folks

    Been incredibly busy this week as we needed to get a project completed and shipped before the Easter holibobs... why I've so quiet this week, as I didn't have a spare minute most days. Was a very much a case of, work, eat, sleep and repeat...

    Thankfully, we completed before end of the day yesterday and everything was fully tested and it shipped before we went home.

    Looking forward to a relaxing weekend with the furry one.

    A quiet one at work today as I am in office on my own, rest of team are on holibobs...
    So, choons are on, I have a BIG mug of coffee and Jaffa cakes :D

    Have a grand day folks

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Morning Folks :D

    Flinking blip! The weekend flew by again...

    Much fun had with the furry one and friends over weekend. Planning for a camping trip with the pup in next few weeks; hopefully the weather will be a little warmer / better.

    Hope everyone had a great weekend
