As we close the end of 2023, we are so excited to be back board getting some projects done, having basically been on and off so infrequently for almost 6 months. Though Ellie still have a couple of months left of full-time work, Ben is just about to finish...

This week we get a heck of a lot of work done, which was our focus over May. We get our heads down and push forward. There is so much prep work involved and I think Ellie realised that the most this week. Hot work, guys.
