Lovely shots Pete
Oh that gleeming metal :tab:
Reminds me of when the aircraft flew overhead on landing or take off, the flickering reflections as it passed along, reflecting the scene below
Thanks for that
Garry

Hi Pete, by jove I do miss that place, a few years ago the library was inhabited some of the 'od guard'style of volunteers who thought that anybody under 60 was bit of a 'whippersnapper' and never made them really welcome in thier cosy domain.
I am glad you are now making light of the real treasures that were being hidden in the 'little club' that the library used to be. Keep it up, its great to see this stuff coming out into the real world at last! It's all priceless ;-)

Garry,
I think you can give yourself a pat on the back for providing me with a reason to go poking around in the archive. ;-)
Trev,
Things are changing - for the better I hope. Would you believe we'll have 2 computer controled touchscreen displays ready for the re-opening on 1 Feb with a 3rd due to come on line in April and another 3 planned (funds permitting) for later in the year.
Best
Pete
