Working party report from Colin:

The ladder has been painted with silver "hammerite", I propose to get some in before our next visit as well as some "red lead" for the chassis, UNLESS anyone has a contact to obtain some at a discount price. I shall also attempt to find a silencer to fit along with fan belt and hoses,and finally, I will try to hire a steam cleaner to finish off the chassis,Steve did a great job on it but it just needs a final degrease that steam should achieve.
