Not much left of the timber after 30 years! See my photos in the archive album for contrast with this and the other recent shots!

Thanks James!

Call me a looney - but is that not a different blondon headgear - count the spokes.

I am sure the timber is still there - or was in September 2006. I am still at work, but will check my photos when I get home.
Been injured while at work and are not to blame?

Get over it.

No - you're not - I wasn't looking close enough! So which blondin headgear is this one - I seem to recall only the one (certainly I only photographed the one...).

Come on James - can you tell us where this one is?

Cheers.
