      Well it's been time to change a few things for about a year now Some of the knife valves in the pump room have some minor leaks so I will be replacing them with ball valves. Sounds like an easy job but it ain't

      I am new around here and I've only just found this thread. I have no words to describe what I have seen in the photos you have posted, or at least nothing that can be posted on a public forum anyway.

      All I can say is, if I am ever anywhere near to where you live, can I please drop in and see it for real??

      That would be awesome, thanks. I have to say that I've only ever been out of the UK about 5 times in my life, also, the chance of me travelling anywhere in the next few years is slim to none. Where abouts are you anyway?
