    I was deeply shocked by some of the content of your video John. Kingsley working, I couldn't believe my eyes.

    As the steam crane is now in fine fettle, we thought it prudent to rewheel the tender using it as well.

    Hard luck sunshine, the lads will be there so bring your wallet. :) As of yesterday we had no 92 Sqd Ale though so nothing for the tombola. Better keep your fingers crossed that Buntingford haven't brewed another batch.

    Interesting video looking at the age of the people working on it who will do this type of work in the future,i don't think any of these will be involved.
