SERVICE OF THE MONTH – Regular Paperwork Help
Hands up who of you likes dealing with paperwork? No hands, not a surprise perhaps as none of our clients like it. We do, are we weird (that was a rhetorical question so you can stop nodding now!). Whether we’re actioning it, filing it or shredding it, we can do it for you. Some of our clients like us to see them regularly, some forward the post to us (especially for those seconded abroad) or we collect it for them or they ask us in for a one off to blitz the piles. Call us today!
On finally make that step and learn to paint. Sir John Soane’s Museum runs a range of evening art classes and starting in April you can go to a Watercolour for Beginners Class it strikes us a lovely place to learn.
explore the wonders of science at the Edinburgh Science Festival it runs from March 30th to 15th April and whether you’re looking for something to do as a family, a bit of comedy, a food and drink event or to learn about the environment and climate change (warm sunshine in Scotland in March?) then this is the place to find it.
