someone who worked on railways lines gave me a 15kg bag of thermite
(they use it to weld the railways tracks together)

it lay around for ages till I tossed it away

wish I'd kept it now

It will be good to see you Oily. Not many people fly over to the BBB, that is quite a claim to fame

Guys, many thanks for the kind offers but I'm hiring a car from Gatwick on the Sunday morning. I actually get in a couple of days before but am popping down to Brighton to visit my (recently divorced) 86 year old mum. Have to be at Gatwick for 0530 on the Monday morning.

Please take note that if that hire car is pe..pet...petr........... you can't bring it within 100yards of chugs field without being lynched.

At least it'll take the heat off of me though.

You're only coming from Jersey, I'll be traveling 1500miles to get to the BBB and not a rented car in sight.

I've cut the grass once already the other week and will go over it again this w/end, so just a bit of strimming left and some trimming of a few bushes left to do, so we're nearly ready.

I finished the trebachet  today, although it's untested as yet.

So we can have some fun throwing things.

Chug. Do you need / want a hand setting things up Friday morning ?
