At the age of 60, I was given a computer with no knowledge of how to turn it on, let alone use it, since then I have been involved in helping several well known companies in developing their shops and stores, in 2009 I helped BT - British Telecom, design their Trade Space website and gave a talk to 40 IT Staff and Directors at their first yearly convention in Brighton on behalf of the then membership of 75,000.
We sell from Victorian days to include new and as new unused items.
