Last week, a couple of our members met here in the High Peak to talk at length about machine rebuilding in and around Manchester UK - as things turned out we never got to say much as Tyrone & my pal Chris tended to fill the available air space as they chatted for 3 hrs solid and then a further 80 minutes in the car journey back to Rochdale ! I wish I had been able to record the discussions ! To hear that they had both worked on the same machines in the same shops at different times was entertaining - both run into the same access problems with a stansion right up to a machine... etc
Chris, my pal had served his time in Cravens and had brought along a stack of old photos from the period - I have photographed these with my phone and added them to this post. When time permits, I plan to sit and record some details from Chris and put together the rest in a short video for YouTube to share the information more openly.
Not sure if these should go in this section of the forum - feel free to relocate.
Thanks to Duncan & John for joining me & Chris. It is so much better being able to put a face to 'name' from these forums. Hope to set something up again in the not to distant future.
