Two campaigns or releases of note:
Seafood Guide: Those that know me, understand that I have been concerned for many years about the restaurant trade in Live Seafood.

Dojeh sai for your support Micheman. I would like this to be topical and interesting and keep people coming back, so always happy to hear any comments or thoughts.
One comment I have received is to try to make this more focused towards kids, but I haven't yet decided about that one (not sure I am up for that.!) Will keep it on the list of potentials.....
cheers...
