Just Jack, Len, Alan and myself, Clive today. First, a brew.
We found some screws for the brass floor plates covering the hinges on the main entrance to BBS. 4 doors. After cleaning out the threaded holes in the cast casements, and shortening the screws, the job was a success. So Alan took to brassoing the plates. Nice job. What has this to do with electricals, who knows.
Then lunch with custard tarts brought by Alan. Probably Sue's doing.
Back up to the overbridge to tackle the emergency lighting. Battery replacement. Those fittings are a nightmare. Very difficult to align the bits when putting them back together. We got 3 more done. We'll test their effectiveness next time. There's a special keyswitch for that.
Said 'hello' to Tracey Parkinson and Richard Law who passed by.
And a final brew.
Next week, weather permitting, might try to fix the lighting on the passage at the side of BTM. Sounds like a photocell issue. And a couple of bulbs out.
