Last week saw the completion of the new longshed doors, in their smart new frame, thanks to the labours of Vernon Taylor and Pete Jacobs. The project ended with the ritual transfer of the old Suffolk latch, whose special rattle has punctuated over half a century of members' use of the longshed and will hopefully continue to do so for at least another half century.
The new doors are superbly finished and much easier to open and shut than the old ones, and Vernon and Peter are to be congratulated on a job well done in preparation for next year's big events!
