                  • it left the building last week for the last time





































                    ........... as we have have just finshed the house after 8 years it seemed like the best idea would be to sell it and buy a new one

                    so SLP has gone off to storage for a couple of weeks while we move then it can come to it's new home you never know I may actually finish it..........
