Out and About in November

This month we have performed jobs from McLaren Vale right through to Clare. Some of the other interesting things we have done over the last month include:

  • Stefan and Joshua had a nice drive out to Clare to fix a backup unit for a farming machinery business.
  • David, Dave and Stefan have also visited a number of wineries around the Fleurieu.
  • David was one of the 600 people who attended the IceBreaker networking event at NVI in Tonsley. It was great to catch up with some current clients as well as meet some great new contacts.
  • David attended a networking evening at the Adelaide Oval hosted by the Adelaide Crows and BusinessSA.
  • Attending some great networking breakfasts and luncheons. If you would like an invite let David know.
