Hey Victorian Groomers! We got together this morning - socially distanced of course (the power of the extension lead) - and recorded a podcast for you filled with groomery things you can do over this lockdown period. If you are not already in crazy town homeschooling kids and fighting for admin space at the kitchen table, take a listen for some helpful tips. Fingers crossed we will all be back to normal work on Friday 4 June. 
Happy listening!
