That is a really uplifting post Jim. It is never easy running your own business. Yours Sons and their family's have managed it well.
Hats off to a proud Dad.

Wow Jim, that is pretty awesome...any dad would be busting his buttons over such an accomplishment. Must be a great feeling to see such young men BOTH succeed at such a young age...good parenting for sure!!!
Rog
Thanks Rog really appreciated. They both get on so well together and have built the business up from scratch. They also only live a couple of hundred metres away from each other.

Every reason to be the Proud Dad, as they obviously have taken their endeavour to the top, and done so at such a young age. Clearly somewhere along the line they got the right kinds of inspiration!!!
