we used to frequent the tinker at that time jesse had the pub, jimmy fitz lived across the road half way up tinker brew , he had a blue pickup, but couldnt drive, i take it cyl is an abreviation , but cant put a face to him, i still lived in nelson, but i think i worked with them for a short while, that was a good while after the tarmac escapade, that didnt last long either,carrot wasnt with us then.
