That's cos they are old school! ;)

I think it's J Hirst and sons. Worth a call One section of the yard was military scrap, the other section which was equally worth a good rummage was a bit more general. But it's not heaps of metal it's useful stuff. And well worth a call, and a day trip :D I've not been for years but it was great :D

It's in Hampshire st Mary Bourne. Trying to think of the name of the yard, he's moved up the road from where he was I know that much. (Not much help to you though as you don't know where he started off ;))

Trewey, there is an ex navy surplus scrap yard in st Mary Bourne on all the old boats they had a smiths forge. The scrap yard is full of fly presses, anvils, (tanks) and the majority of them are in great nick :)

Sacrilege!!!!! I'm cringing at that! Makes such a difference to have a decent face on it. Just tedious building a new one up.

That's just a baby single beak I've got one of those :D That needs refacing by the look of it from piccies. Check the note of the anvil with a hammer. All the way along it should have a different note which should ring off just a drop lightly of the hammer and the hammer should feel lively...

I'm a self professed div when it comes to technology! I went off half baked with the petition absolutely no idea there was all sorts of different petition sights Oops! The sentiment was there! Badly executed as usual ;) Thanks for signing :D

I have a second petition running on change.org which covers worldwide, because I didn't realise there was a petition site you could do that on. So there is one yes :)

Cheers for that :)

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way! :D Thank you for signing :)

It takes a while to update itself, :) Thank you for signing :)

There aren't any words really such sad news x

Well according to one of your forums they're fairly keen :)

Well that is why everyone rolls over in this country! However the petition I have started in Australia and in America they have a bit more guts to sign so maybe they'll put us to shame with their support

:D cheers :)

Thank yoooou :)

Would Wales not be viable? :D

Welcome fellow local person :D

Those are my only days off :( Apart from my road trip up norf for new tent :D
