Horrell Engineering

🚨 Blair is abandoning us! 🚨

From Monday–Wednesday next week, Blair is swapping engineering for SCHOOL CAMP DAD duties 🏕️ He’ll have no access to his phone, so if you’ve got an urgent job, strange request or engineering conundrum that “only Blair knows about” - sort it out this week!

Logan and Rodney will be holding the fort in the workshop.

Her qualifications include:

⚙️ Knows bearings are round
💳 Excellent EFTPOS skills

Normal Blair-based services resume Thursday!
