How did it go?

I’ve co e to the conclusion after reading a couple of his books that he had a very patient wife.

There’s a huge delay on vehicles, a lot of it reportedly is chips from China not available. The courier market has exploded with lock downs and that’s really affected the cost and availability of vans well, reportedly there was a 6-12 month wait for a new Transit from Ford. I heard of a chap...
