Great video Byron, it's always great to watch the expert at work. No music suited this one. Well done.

Went to hospital... The doctor said rest.....

Can't stop. Won't stop. Another big case study in the shop. Very very difficult car to wrap to a paint like standard. Literally stripped everything off I could.

You must listen to the Doc. Running a one-man business can be a huge mental strain. If you can't stop, at least slow down. Allow more time between jobs and put some 'chill' music on in the shop. Stop worrying about 'this and that', just worry about 'this' and f**k 'that'.

NOT THE NICEST OF VIDS TO put out but.... i didn't want to waste the footage on this one. Filming was ended abruptly after the call from the doctors informing me of the changes to my cancer diagnosis :-( , i haven't put much updates up as the news early on kept changing and moving around resulting in me actually not knowing the path.

This has got to be one of the most difficult moments of my life. So in summary, filming for this job was well underway, the car required a whole heap of strip down and it was not fun at all. Already in a low place after being told i have stage 1 cancer before the job started but it was about to get painfully worse , the doctor calls with the camera running as i was about to record a segment, im then told after the initial scans they got wrong and its infact a stage 3 cancer and has a small spread . My world literally crumbled at the moment and combined with the stress of the job and then hearing that life changing news.... All i could think about was my 9 year old son, i REALLY struggled to get through this one after hearing that news. Luckily my partner was on hand to pick me up like she always does and together we finished the job. I wanted to release this video as im extremely proud to have finished it, my head is in a good space and i'm ready for this next chapter of my life. A Tough day no doubt. As i type this Chemo starts in 2 weeks and depending on how it is for me, i will likely need to shut down the business for a period while i recover. i will however keep posting videos etc and plan to do some bis of the chemo journey to helps others......

Such horrible news Byron. Your attitude is first class and it's nice to know that you have a good Woman by your side. Keep posting videos which I am sure will help others in a similar position.

Hi Byron, keep on believing you will beat this mate - I cant for one second imagine how you are feeling after the initial diagnosis which would have been a relief to you and your family.

All the best going forward

right guys, as i type im literally having my first chemo session.... so im going to share some of the recent jobs thative complete. Excuse the order as im literally throwing these up.

particular highlight was the mx5 which i LOVED!! this with a BBR turbo kit = WIN.

The audi TT was white wrapped to avery matte green with gloss black roof and accents.... probably one of the most difficult wraps ive done .... Horrible car to wrap. i underpriced that job but some margin but.... you live and learn.
