BEST MOMENTS

“I was brought up in an environment where you work hard and if you took a day off you were lazy.”

“I suppose that made me quite resilient, quite tough and certainly gave me a really hard-working ethic.”

“I was carrying on with the running of the business and didn’t appreciate how poorly I was until suddenly I wasn't coping anymore.”

“You just don't have the bandwidth, energy, focus or anything to actually handle any normal communication.”
