    A wander through the archives in work today - (Img Heavy)

    So during lunch time today in work I nipped down to the archives to find some reference material for my up and coming projects and came across quite a few gems.

    Those buildings in the fore and background are still there today. In fact I was in the foreground LHS building today and in the distance the little building with about a dozen windows is where my office is today

    Only had 30 mins to poke around today full of fascinating material

      Really good references for your project Warren. They should help a lot.

      Is that you, the third guy from the left, on the cover of the Short book???

      Prost
