5K Views Milestone!!

Humbled, thrilled and amazed at how, in just 1 week The Force has developed and the interactions that we have received. 🎵
The positive feedback, along with the 5K+ views and visitors to our website, the response to the first opportunity and not to mention the statistics of countries that have visited the site has me excited to say the least.

Thanks Gilbert Cormie for making contact with Paula to advertise The Force in this weeks Newsletter. Also, thanks to Big Rab for the shares and interview given on what The Force is all about.

The future is bright for #TheForce. 🤩
