I managed to get some more work done on Fen End Pit's washing plant over the last couple of days. The 3D printed steps got installed and the power up to the washer motor got routed into a conduit. Overall I'm pleased with the result.

Now 'An announcement'

 

Fen End Pit was booked to appear at the Ely MRC's show on 19th May 2018. http://www.elymrc.org.uk/exhibition.html .When I received my news back in January I felt I had no choice but to withdraw the layout as I did not expect to be able to attend. My good friend Geraint Hughes (Middlepeak of this parish) had kindly offered to stand in. Having got over the initial shock and started chemo I'm feeling more positive and I wanted to re-consider that decision. The Ely club have been most supportive and understand that it means a lot to me and 'the crew' the get Fen End Pit out on the road again, for as long as we can manage.

 

So, barring further issues, it is now the intention that Fen End Pit will appear at Ely. It will be good to see you there.

 

Thanks

It all looks fantastic.  The weathering lifts it yet another level.

 

Good luck with the show, another one I wish I could attend, but a bit difficult from here. Hopefully there will be photos (nudge nudge).

David, that Rotary Screen and conveyor look brilliant, and from one Chemo client to another, Keep going and don't let the Lethargy get hold of you if you can help it. I have found having a daily target to aim at helps to force me into doing something positive with my time.

Talking to you at the St. Neot's show gave me a real boost!

Looking forward to seeing you at Ely.
