We have continued to build….. 7 years in!

This posts timing in some way defines just how busy I have been over the last few years. I completely by-passed the 6-year mark post, as I have just passed the 7-year mark of true entrepreneurship.  1 July 2019 marked the 7-year journey on this road, together with Adrian Larkin and the rest of the…
