CLEAN SWEEP: What toilet roll shortage?
HOW’S YOUR WEEK BEEN DAN? It’s been a wee bit challenging, that’s for sure! Having said that, there are signs that some semblance of normality is beginning to return and we’re getting into a rhythm of sorts. The first few
weeks of the crisis were just all hands on deck, do whatever it takes kinds of weeks but we’re beginning to get to grips with demand levels and staffing levels and so on, so it’s feeling a little bit more under control. It’s been a crazy few weeks but we’re getting there.
