    Can we take a second to thank not only Ollie but the customers he looks after and other worker on jobs that are happy to be part of his videos? It’s great that he takes the time to make these videos and edit them but unspoken thanks for those customers who are happy for him to film their property and are happy for him to film the work he’s doing!
