Good morning, just to clear some rumours regarding a new job ? Mike (me) is very much still self employed and Argyll Exclusive is busy for the summer ahead. May and August are fully booked already and June isn't far behind however I do still have some availability in July and September so if you are wondering if I am still producing amazing wonders on my own then yes I am. 😀

To enter the competition: Please like our page and place a comment on this post guessing the total number of customers that Argyll Exclusive has fed since August of 2018.
