Flushed!: The first 20 years - a view from the b(l)og

by Adrian Ashton

Adrian Ashton never meant to create his own business - but as part of celebrating reaching it's 20th anniversary, he wanted to pause to reflect on how he's approached working with clients, changed the rules, and generally got in (and out) of trouble during these 2 decades.

This curated collection of blog posts he's written during this first 20 years of his business is grouped by different themes, and with new introductory chapters throughout.
Featuring stories about dancing in the House of Lords, walking alongside business owners in their darkest hours, and yellow snow - this book is part business memoir, part guidance to others, and part confession.
