THE SUMMER-LIKE days, anomalies that we knew them to be, have faded away to all-night rains which in turn cleared into bright, winter days that are more in line with what one would expect in January.

We’re also still completing expansion work on The Shop, which is really beginning to take shape with so many beautiful things, as well as new content for TIG and even more new endeavours. 2018 is going to be an extraordinary year, filled with fresh starts and following our hearts and always chasing what is already turning out to be the grandest adventure of lives …
