Hi Roy and Taylor.
Wow thanks very much for your hard work on the bridge what a surprise and it looks really good very strong and bigger than the last one by the looks of it . I will get us some blocks from work to sit it on properly and bring a shovel etc next meet.
Thanks again both of you.

> Liz was home as the flag was flying
But was it the Royal Standard ?
There were red faces when Di died because Liz wasn't at home, so there wasn't a flag flying, so they couldn't fly it at half-mast.
Ever since then, there's always a flag flying over the castle but it's only the Royal Standard when she's actually at home.
I don't know what they fly when she's not, the Union flag I suppose.

Hi Adrian,
I only got a quick look at the flag as I was driving at the time, Poor form I know but from two miles it could have been anything and I wouldnt be able to tell you it was a flag from a bed sheet.
Regards Roy

Unfortunately I won't be there next weekend as I'll be dining/drinking under the Tuscan sky for a week You're really doing a fantasic job and now some pillboxes too Don't forget to take some photo's as I'll still be online. When I get back I'll start making some more buildings myself and I'll get that bunker painted. I can see us needing a bigger shed in the near future. See you and Taylor on the 20th,
Thanks Ant
