Closed after Simon died, and that was a few years back. I think someone was trying to reopen it a year or so ago?

Looks like it might be close.

They were trying for this weekend, but council pricks being council pricks, are giving them a hard time.

Closed after Simon died,
Ties in from what I heard 'around the traps' over the years. Had a few drinks in the place back in the early 80's in my Seismic Survey days.

Incidentally, I knew him as Sigmund not Simon, and also heard a few interesting stories about his activities during WWII.
And they are best left alone I think.

Back to the original subject.

Reference to young pilot riding his mates Hayabusa; Pure gold

"He’d barely make it out of third gear before his organs would be in someone else.”
