Closing notes
I hope you enjoyed Issue #17.
I’m still in the rainy UK and, by the looks of our friend, Omicron, it’ll be a while before that changes. Weirdly getting into home-office setup inspiration images on Instagram this week.
Working slowly but progressively on the relaunch of pplbots.com and associated services.
I’m hoping that this newsletter keeps building and improving with every issue. Let me know your thoughts, feedback and ideas of what you want to see by DM on LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram or even TikTok (not that I have worked that one out yet!).
Have a great week ahead!
