CALM AFTER THE STORM?  

I’m not convinced that the calm after the WSP storm ever arrived?! Does it feel like that to you too? The troubles of pre-COVID days are back (think traffic & load-shedding), combined with the pressures and expectations of an open and so-called normal (albeit sluggish) economy. There are a lot of sniffles around too.

So in case you need it, this newsletter is cloaked in kindness – from our team to yours. If that works for you, then spread some gentleness around and we’ll keep it going – we could all do with a little love and light right now. 

We’ve kept this edition upbeat and it comes with loads of good news opportunities and useful info too.

And in case all of that doesn’t work – here are some funny cats:

Take care out there

Yours in Skills,

Andrea
