With the UK opening back up again and more people going back into offices to work, it is important to make sure your employees are trained in the event of a fire. https://buff.ly/3i9ZNJX

Hi Twitter friends I had a big order and they've cancelled.
They ordered 200kg high quality vegan & gluten free chocolate covered hazelnuts.
Is anyone is interested in buying high quality vegan and gluten free chocolate covered hazelnuts?
Thanks from this small business owner.
