Well, it worked for the Welsh Development Agency

We have made it to Penkridge without incident, hooray. Along the way I have amused myself by memorising the names of the locks by setting them to the tune of Cwm Rhondda.

I know it worked for the Welsh Development Agency because thirty years later I can still remember: Dunlop, G-Plan, Revlon, Berlei; British Airways, Hotpoint, Kraft. Kellogs, Esso, Hoover, Sony; Metal Box, Ferranti, Ford. I wonder how many of them are still made in Wales?

    Congratulations, to Jim as well. Completing an awkward job under pressure, with a successful result, especially when it is an enabling action, should be rewarded more than it (usually) is.
