Huge kudos to Ady for an amazing testing song he brought into MoT 4.0 meet up to London yesterday. Watch the video and sing with Ady. Also Ady travelled 450 miles round trip to join the meet up ...

Sarah works quietly, mainly in the background, making sure everything is going in the right direction. She works with so many people to make sure everything runs smoothly to deliver great articles, but particularly when it comes to the Essentials Certificate. There is so much organising of people, edits, copy, etc. that goes unseen, but is vital to ensuring the end product is all pulled together and delivered for the MoTaverse. Thank you Sarah, for all you do.
