Just a few shots from this weekend's operating session (the one which preceded the alfresco evening meal)

Thanks for sharing that Rik, it's nice when it all comes together on a day like that.

Wonderful video (again) Rik, everything has established itself in a perfect setting, plants and structures alike.
Good to see the gunpowder van correctly sited in its train.

Very atmosheric and enjoyable viewing. I'll bet it gave you even more pleasure especially given the the lovely weather we had.

I like the stream of water; I attempted unsuccessfully to make one in the past. What is the power of your pump?

I've been asked this a few times - and I keep forgetting the answer. I think it's written on a plate on the pump but it's not easily accessible - inside the plastic dustbin which I use as a sump, covered in cobbles and pebbles. Next time I clean out the sump I'll make a note of the pump's power. I know it's quite powerful. I bought it in a sale - it was reduced from over £70 around ten years ago. Basically, buy the most powerful one you can afford.

Hi Rik this has been a pleasure to watch and I really like the water mill thanks for sharing.
