Hello,
We're
Maureen and Barrie Etherington and, together, we run the business.
We're parents
of 3 married adult sons with 2 grandsons.
I'm the photo-artist in the family; whilst
Maureen runs our home and business flawlessly.
We
live, work and play in Lyme Regis, Dorset, England and, between us, we've
so far shared some 50 or so years of friendship, marriage,
work, travel, children, grandchildren, house buying, holidays, cars and all
that stuff.
We
both have extensive experience of corporate life and we've shared over 20 years running
our own business.
'From little acorns, great oaks
grow ...' might be a good way of describing us in that time. As oak
trees go, Millgate
Resources is still a sapling. But
we're blessed with access to a wide network of like minded people with a lot
of skills, loads of experience and even more energy.
Some
of them are our sons and their growing families, and they all keep us young !
We want
to have fun whilst we continue to grow our business. Time to
work, of course - but also time to enjoy ourselves playing, travelling and
doing whatever we choose.
If you care to, take a
look at another of our websites at
www.50plus-feeling30.com and you'll see
some more of the things that interest us.
But now we're downsizing and planning for the rest of our lives; some
call it retirement (but we have our own view of what that is !) - but we're
looking for new things to do and new places to go.
Selling my photographs, and
'art derivatives' from them, is a new venture for us. You may even
find some of my paintings here too.
Enjoy your visit to our site - we look forward to providing you with some of
our work ?
