Thanks Brit. The ones that Dowse had already signed I have given to him to auction for charity. The other ones I have posted to the Science Museum, along with HM’s can of chicken soup that he took to the first game at Beveree.
Also found in The Club Car boot, a pair of Dowse signed underpaints. Maybe they will fit you Big Rich but they do have skid marks.
Thanks HM, I might keep them to clean the club car.

I saw photos that the old lights are down. Can anyone tell if the new ones have started to put up or is there other work first?

Wandered into the ground this morning, before it rained. Plenty of activity. The trees on the school side appear to having some pruning in advance of new pylons going up. Not a good look if the new lights are obscured by overhanging trees! Coils of black drainage pipes waiting to be put into the ground. Workmen and digging machinery around. Work in progress.

Today had another look-in.

Pop-up sprinklers.....drainage tubes can be seen sticking up from the pitch awaiting pop-ups to be connected.
Pylons for the new floodlights are expected to be up within the next month, LED bulbs are coming from Spain

Let me know when the bulbs arrive Les, and I'll put the spares in the club car's boot.
