So do you want to tell us a bit how that's come about and how that's developed over the years and, you know, where it is now?
12:33
Yeah, so it's kind of my... two different worlds merged together that i started off doing diving and then transit didn't intend to but just transitioned away from that ended up running a tv channel on kolanta many many years ago back when cable tv still existed and that work then transitioned into more software, websites, web development, I ended up making a software for the transport industry, so coach, minibus hire, those companies.

It was kind of an all-in-one booking, business management, handles all the admin side of things, everything that the staff are doing all day, they can live and work in that software and makes their life easier.

And then...

About two years ago, I was working with a local dive school here doing website things for them and had the question, how can we solve the paddy forms, the medicals, the liabilities? We've got boxes of them.
13:58
Five years, eight years, whichever one it is, filling up the classroom.

So they asked me if I could help solving that.

So if there's people listening to this that have other businesses, not dive related, is this some kind of software package that could be transferable to other industries? Like, I don't know, hospitality industry or restaurant industry? Are you writing software that can be bespoke to another industry apart from diving?
