This journey has come to an end. The lat few years have been punishing for business. Successive tax rises by our dear government have made it so that a small business like mine simply cannot compete anymore. The latest increase in business rates was the final straw.

As a business, I have been taxed to death.

We get what we vote for. The last ones weren't great, but this lot is illiterate. Here's hoping for better options in the future.

A huge thank you to all my customers over the years, it has been a privilege to work with and for you. I will miss you all.
