Maybe it’s just a dream, but was there a short spell when it was a little bit drier during these past few weeks? As you’ll see below, we seem to be having very high rainfall levels. The ground is still totally saturated, so it won’t take much to see flooding again and that is seriously affecting groundworks. But the days are also lengthening and we’re heading for the busier phase for construction.

I’m a new face here at FORT, joining the sales team back in October last year. A lot of you will likely know me by now if you’ve had a recent visit to FORT, or even just a phone call. Having worked in similar sectors prior to joining the team I’ve brought with me some great knowledge on the industry and it’s materials.

Christmas seems such a long time ago and now January is speeding along. Thankfully the awful weather at the start of the month has abated, but it has left a huge amount of water, small amounts over the coming weeks will soon top it up again.

Almost everyone that deals with FORT will know me, as I’m in charge of the phone getting answered, orders getting taken and deliveries going out the door. Having started out at Marlborough Building Supplies with Patrick Kiely, some could say that he is my Obi-Wan; teaching me the ways that I still use today.

The clocks have changed, the trees are getting bare and the weather is awful, but there’s no shortage of cheer here at FORT as we continue to develop and grow, with more to come through November as we give the shop a re-vamp.

Being Tim’s cousin and PJ & James’ little step bro I feel at ease when coming in to FORT and being amongst my family & friends. I joined FORT as a van driver, delivering smaller loads to the local area but after passing my HGV test you’ll now see me in the larger FORT trucks!
