The indoor range will be closed from 09:00 – 17:00, this is to allow for an upgrade for our lighting to LEDs – I will be ripping out all light fitting and starting over.

Those willing to assist please let me know, a few sets of hands, handing things up to me will be a big help (and like a true tradesman I’ll never refuse a cuppa).
If anyone else is confident with electrics or working up a ladder (non-electrical) please let me know as this can save a lot of time on the day.
