Right in the middle of the process of starting a new enterprise here in Norwich, the healthy eating restaurant, do you have a name for your restaurant yet? I certainly do. Yeah, it's called Let Us Eat Healthy. Ah, well, we don't like puns, but I like puns, so I.
I want to sort of reward the children as well and show them that they're doing good. So one of the ideas that has actually been passed to my business plan is for each bit of fruit or veg that they eat, they actually get a stamp, like a loyalty card. And as you collect more stamps, you actually win sort of cinema trips.
John Wright of the Full Gospel Business Fellowship. Good morning. Good morning, Dominic. How are you? I'm full of joy in the Holy Ghost. Well, that's that's just the way we should be, really, on this Easter season. And we haven't particularly been talking about Easter yet, but we will soon. But first, tell me about about the group, the Full.
