I live about two miles from them, top company

It's not quite finished

My condolences :(

RIP Matt, genuine shock :(

And he was so terrified that he's moved everyone back. :rolleyes: As someone else said, if he just came out and said he cocked up this would probably have been chip paper today. But he didn't, and it isn't.
