Thanks to Tim for sending: “Looks like some keg taps and tables being installed.”
You can see how the outdoor seating used to look here.
So which do you prefer – picnic tables or smaller tables and chairs with backs?
Thanks to Andrew for sending this painful double dosage from Petworth.
Time for a task force?
Ed. Note: It had been 4 days since our last stolen wheels.
