Anyway, before I got as far as Blaenau I got sidetracked by the catering manager, Dylan. He said 'Come and look at this fish.' So I did and it was an enormous halibut. Chef Dave was about to prepare it for use in Spooner's and it seemed like a good opportunity to shoot something different and we even got to taste the finished product which was very tasty indeed.
The main work I've done with the video this week has been yesterday and today up at the other end of the FR. Lots of trains coming and going and a couple of rare loco sightings. The ALCO was dragged out of the shed in Glan y Pwll for people to look at as it was a favourite around the time of the opening to Blaenau. The other guest was visiting from the Statfold Barn Railway although it had been a resident at Boston Lodge for some years before its restoration, namely the Peckett now known as Harrogate but known on the FR as Volunteer. It looks great in shiny green paint and made a fine sight on the TYG- BL Ff shuttle with Palmerston. I got a nice shot at Groby Junction but could have done better and had better sunshine, one to remember for later in the year.
