Happy New Year🎉
Hi Neighbours! I hope your festive season went well and your not too lost in the days between it and the new decade!
2020 will see me trying to be more active with my hobby creations around other commitments and work. I love creating bespoke pieces that are loved by customers and the people gifted to, so want to get more done this coming year than previous years have allowed.
You might not know what you want but we can talk about the person and come up with ideas. Our imaginations are the limit!! (Mines pretty active 😂)
Please give a couple of weeks notice so I can ensure it will be ready in time around other commitments 😊
There is no commitment necassary to discuss what might be right for you.
Oh look at you....still here reading 😂 Good on you. Heres to a Happy New Year and decade!! 🥂
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
