thanks Keith -
Nice to see how things are progressing.  Looking good and I have no objection to progress but it is a shame to lose the 'rustic' charm that attracted so many of us to Calis in the first place. Someone once said to me that 'nothing is forever' - how true.

Have they done anything with the rusty bridge over the river at the end - or is that escaping renovations???

The rusty bridge has a new chequerplate deck on the pedestrian bit. I don't know if the budget will stretch to another coat of fish pond vegetation green paint though  :)

Ah but does it still twang and groan when you walk on it, giving me heart failure :o :o

Yes, it's 'rustic charm' apparently.

I increasingly struggle to convince myself that its not my bones that are twanging and groaning rather than the bridge

Here are a few I took last week. I think it will look pretty darn nice when completed.
