It's December! Already! Honestly, I just can't believe that it's the last month of the year! This must have been the fastest year on record?! I've been thinking and saying that for years, but it's crazy how fast each day flies these days! But, you know, as they say, it's better to be busy, than to be bored. And life has been busy! 

Our business making Custom LEGO Kits has really taken off again this year, following the return of events like Comic Con's and Brick Festival's now that the days of lockdown and isolating due to coronavirus are behind us! And because we've been so busy with events and online with the approach of Christmas, I've pretty much been working with him full time this last month (whilst also juggling my own work) to try and support him and grow the business. Because of how many events have been on lately, it's been pretty full on work-wise, but that's the nature of the business and we know it will quieten down in January for a while. Plus, to be honest, we love being busy and feel very fortunate that we are!
