This was taken 4 years ago today. The pandemic hit us hard and to financially and mentally survive I worked for a grounds maintenance company and was so excited to drive a ride on mower!! I mean who wouldn’t be.

But the smile also shows another story, I’d just received a message from some lovely clients to say they were having an amazing time on their holiday to Antigua, we had managed to get them away during one of the traffic light windows.

I learned a lot during this period and I will forever be grateful to our friends and clients that stood by us during that tricky time and to our new customers that recognised the value that we offer.

Thank you for your continued support and custom, it’s always appreciated.
