You've uncovered a real piece of history Andy. Hard work but you've done it.
Big congratulations on the grandson. All the best to mum and dad.

Pass on my very best wishes to your daughter and the new Smythelet. As to the shelter, looks like it took a direct hit The depth of foliage on there was quite amazing actually.

First off,and this is WELL off the beaten Track,but please allow me a little self indulgence here .....
I didn`t think it right to put it into "Latest Acquisitions" ,and certainly not appropriate for a specific thread,BUT ,i bought THIS at 7am this morning .....

I know,I know.... WTFs that doing here?!!.... Well chaps,at 6 am this morning i got the news that my Daughter,Charlotte,gave birth to my first Grandson:thumb2:,
So,it`s been a very productive day for all things "Smythe".... BECAUSE ...... remember THIS?......

....Well, unfortunately, as you can see,there are a couple of VERY large holes,which i think makes the thing,basically,SCRAP!..... HOWEVER,my mum is convinced that the Heritage people told her,"We`ll take it no matter what"?! :rolling: .... not sure myself,but we`ll see!
Anyway,there it is at the moment..... before i end up kicking the s**t out of it!!:tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:
I`m now off to have copious amounts of Cider,JD and Coke to "Wet the Babies Head" with Rach,(She`ll be on the wine of course:hungry,we can`t visit today,as Charlotte is Knackered,still in Treliske,and it`s a 160 mile round trip!:disappointed2:
Apologies for the self indulgence !
Andy

Congratulations to you and your Family, Andy ! How soon 'til you can show that boy how to handle a pair of sprue cutters ? And take it easy on the Psych-prog-rock, maybe ease him into that with something a bit milder such as.. Rush, or perhaps some Saga ?
