It has been proven that if you give someone too

much choice they wont make a decision and then wont

buy.

When have you been most

satisfied in your life?

Do you have a role model,

and why?

At home, with Richard Denny

13

What was the most

significant period of your

career?

Are you an early bird or a

night owl?

What gets you up in the

morning and what keeps you

working?

How would you describe

yourself?

I sadly meet

many people who are

not striving to be

better despite having

so much potential

Local

publications

provide a

powerful, cost

effective channel

through which

to engage local

audience
