Back Again With Vengeance

by: Paul MalpasPosted on: January 3, 2021March 11, 2021

Good morning, I am back. It is the 1st January 2021. A brand new year with lots to look forward to, lots to recover from and lots to complain about. Over the Christmas just gone I promised myself in discussion with my loved ones to get into my stride again […]
