If only you could actually get a delivery when ur an nhs worker who doesn’t have use of a car and can’t get to a shop.

Our companies, businesses, industries are either buying into furloughing option or the down-sizing or laying-off option. Peter Login is an extraordinary workaholic, skilfully blessed I must confess. That he isn't flying in the skies doesn't mean can't be on the wheel. 👍Mr Login!

I applaud you Sir👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Way to think outside the box.

Got that job quick

Be lucky
