Re: Woodnook mill.
Ma has just rung me and told me that the chaps have been working like demons since first light, and that they are making great inroads into what was left of the building.
I will be over there on Monday so I will take my little camera and hopefully get some pics.

The steeplejacks may just be waiting until this has been achieved ... although they must have some sort of predicted schedule ? Think Tom knows more than what he is telling us ...  |
