        text: |
            <p>I had the pleasure of working with Oliver whilst building the first version of our drupal based intranet. His knowledge of Drupal and the wider infrastructure required to run a site was really invaluable. At the time, we were very new to Drupal, so it gave us a great platform to learn from and expand our own knowledge. He's the only external contractor that we've kept in touch with over the years, which goes to show how much we valued his input.</p>
