Into the New Year...

So, already we are looking back at Christmas 2011, still feeling rather over wined and dined. It has been a very enjoyable time this year. having had time to enjoy the different facets of our evolving family and friends. From an evening with Jools Holland to Cathedral choir concert, the Exeter Children's Orchestra Christmas concert, meals out with work colleagues at the Conservatory and with Jacky and Mike at Quo Vadis and the Christmas morning Cathedral service with Steve and Sarah. Family times over Christmas and Boxing day were pleasant, laid back affairs with more than enough food and drink. Before we left work for the Christmas break we had already managed to do the best December figures since opening the Polsloe Bridge sit , so we were able to relax a bit more as a result.
With so many things happening Europe and Worldwide it's difficult to know what we can expect for business in 2012. As a family we are all, in one way or another, involved in Steve's business', so we just hope that some of the magic formulas and ways of operating we seem to be developing will pay off even more in the coming year and beyond.
2012 is not going to be an easy ride but hard work and determination never hurt anyone and I do think we can emerge substantially stronger during this year if we continue to keep focused on the positive work ethics we have established over the last few years.
