Morning Darren,

The service and inspection were carried out last week with success. We have saved the parts in-between servicing and they will last until the next service. Doubling the life of the parts!!!

I have spoken to our asset manager (The guy with the money) and we will look to put a plan in next year to release the funding early and have our own coated stock at Landia.

We have until March to sort something, so I am thinking in the new year we have a small meeting and plan how we get rolling stock of coated parts, funding mechanisms, etc between us, you and Landia.

Thank you for your assistance in this. Its great to prove, what may be, a significant cost saving.
