Got to say, I didn't know either. Wish I had, I'd have treated Mrs JD to a day out on Sunday to watch.

... Never let it be said that my dates are anything more, than 'ground-breaking'  :thumbsup:

I only noticed driving down Donny Road from Stainy to Barnby Dunn, and since I moved to Moorends I don't use that road as often...

Excellent.  I used to fish in the Power Station Pond years ago (I knew the angling club secretary) and my uncle was chief engineer there.

Cool vid - thanks

Someone my missus knows used to swim in those cooling ponds when training for a cross channel swim she did.  Bloody nuts if you ask me!

It was great for night fishing.  Fluorescent water - no need for special gear :-D
