Not long now!

 

Possibility of snow last time I checked the forecast, but too warm for it to cause any problems.  

 

Have been frantically trying to finish wagons for the last few weeks. Do come and say hello, I still haven't got around to being sheared so I'm the one stood in front of BT&S that appears to have had a hair transplant from a spaniel...

York Gardens looks nice, I have not seen that one before and my fellow operator is a big fan of Inglenooks so will no doubt be over for a chat!

 

Thanks Rob. York Gardens was shown as a work in progress project at Thornbury back in November but this will be its first outing following its completion.  Its designed to be operated by visitors and proved quite popular at Thornbury.
