The next build should be in the same place...

I have offered a unit in Sussex - but some people (from Rotherham) don't seem keen! :lol: In all honesty its probably best for it to stay where it is... excellent facilities!

it's not that Matt it's just the logistics of moving it around - if you could tow it it'd be easier :lol:
