To keep in time with ongoing coordinated developments we are continuing to run our service but strictly within the guidelines that have been laid down by the latest Government instructions and not to so-called un-coordinated independent experts who create panic.
We have taken extra precautionary measure with temperature measurements, sanitisers, washing of hands and spraying on all our vehicles.
