Thanks for the above comments :toast:

Paul, not having a camera/lens kinda hurt lol, couldn't resist. :biggrin:

The new place is slow, had to wait for full planning consent, this was given on Tuesday 3rd July so from next week it will be full steam ahead with the hope of moving the Centre in by the end of September 2007. From then on for 12months it will be a pre-arranged visiting basis only.

Thanks for asking
