Wow, Mr denm, you're like a machine gun. 20 or 30 different posts, all on different threads, within a matter of minutes!

Good stuff!

I'm pleased it's going to be occupied, ---better than standing empty and becoming derelict.

I think businesses getting involved in this project would be good, ---especially local firms, ---so I hope Mr Griffiths can help in some way.
