hi all,

i have been seriously overwhelmed & overworked lately with custom design work. this means i have not been getting stuff done on time, cheesing people off, and have spent most of my evenings sat in front of my laptop till the early hours instead of doing normal things like relaxing after work, spending time with my daughter..... the lack of sleep has made me ill a few times on top of that. i realise i have not had a break since i started so i'm gonna take some time out :D....i'm going on holiday soon anyway so will not be able to work over that period.

i won't be able to do any custom work until the end of april (new desigs, number plates...etc) which is soon after i return anyway.

don't panic though...until then all stock items will still be available through here or the website.

(all the design work i have already commited to will be completed in turn)

i don't mean to dissapoint anyone but hope you guys understand!

cheers!

First of all many thanks for my plates, top job. And apologies for not saying so earlier.

It is important not to lose sight of the bigger picture.

One pair of hands can only do so much, I know that I find this when spending 3 hours answering customers emails, PMs, calls and texts, while not having acheived anything. I noticed I was recieving mails from you at odd hours. So sorry for any pressure that I added to your work load, it was not intentional.

Enjoy your break.
