Yes, it’s FSTL’s 31st anniversary… and it seems like yesterday that we were shouting out proudly about our 30th annniversary, we had a little fun with the number 30 and were looking forward to all the excitement that 2020 would bring. Little did we know how much unwanted excitement the year would hold….!
So we thought we’d take the opportunity to revisit the fun with numbers concept and talk about all things 31 as we celebrate our 31st anniversary!
