    Thanks Mike, great advice as always. Its all about treating people in a manner you would want to be treated yourself.

      Thanks John. I think you’re so right. Simple courtesy and taking the time to be nice you people makes all the difference.

    Hello Mike
    Good basic blog message that is so often forgotten by even the best.
