darkazana 1,736 Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Yup was just talking bout getting the cakes and puds done yesterday, which will be tricky this year as we are working till mid November this year. Going up to Kendal to do 6 weeks when we finish at Poolsbrook. Looks like trip home on days off to accomplish the mission. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
