OR HOW WILLY PETER MET BLUE PETER

And here’s one we made earlier. How to turn a piece of old pontoon, some old drainpipe and a bit of hose into a makeshift pump. Those ingenious buggers at Trinity Street certainly know how to make money out of old rope. Or with the MOD now piss poor, is it a new trial of a British army device- an AW bomb of the 21st century?

And today it was working, pumping out water from “the cleanside” lagoon, that has just had a load of disturbance caused by a dredger being present. I do hope they tested the water-especially for P4-  oh but I just remembered- the EA can’t test for it unless they get an accredited laboratory to do it for them.Why not use Rhodia’s – I’m sure they are impartial.

It’s called “The Rubiks’s Albright.”
