As those who may have seen comments on previous posts about the roadrailer. Well after months of head scratching and hard work by Armada Engineering, William Babbage Plant Specialist alongside Kev, Malcolm, Ash and company. It is now back in operation and work can start again at pace. Thank you to all those involved in trying their best to get it back to working order.

Well we had a visit from Nicki, Colin and Connor from Tesco Helston this afternoon. They presented us a cheque for £1500 for the money raised by those who parked at Tesco or took part in their raffle on Flora day. A total of £1500 was raised. Thank you to all those who played their part and for the support of the staff at Tesco Helston.
