Can't - there's no ammo for the gun. Oh, you mean Typhoon, not TypHoon.
Regarding the availability of Lottery cash: My understanding was that the £3.5M (or whatever it was) was set aside for this project by the LC, rather than being paid in one lump. It was/is to be released in stages as
additional supporting funds are raised from other sources.
If that's so (anyone confirm?), then it's quite possible that some lottery cash is still ring-fenced but is unavailable until or unless further non-lottery money is found.
