Hi Fin,
Sorry I’m slow answering got no signal on mt pc half the time. The mixers are hauling to a new Tesco at Llandrindod,also a lot of big free range chicken sheds going up on every other farm in Radnorshire at the moment,will keep you chaps busy. All the quarry work seems busy at the moment,don’t know for how long,although the Newbridge On Wye - Cwmbach job will keep them busy for 18 months.
Cheers Dave.
