Bond and it’s subsequent name change to 08002FIXIT in 1996 and 1997. He

purchasers. He kept me fully informed of progress throughout the process

recommending David and should you require any confirmation on the above
please do not hesitate to contact me."

which was being marketed by David Newport in 2006. We found him to be

other business owners we know who have wanted exit."
