Hello Brenda and Graham, Give me a "Shout" as you go by on your travels. I would like to see the new larger "Cutweb" Logo, (And the pennant if you are flying it). I am repairing the paintwork on Pengalanty at Horton Wharf Farm at the moment and if it's of any use, would be pleased to offer a car shuffle, if you need one whilst in this area, Linslade or MK. Have a nice cruise. ~Allan~ >
