My dad used to tell me all you need is three things in life, food in your belly, a dry roof and a good pair of wellies. If you have those three things life is good, and it was. Today my kids want things, society has changed to "want want want" I am entitled, why cant i have a new car, own my own house, go to Uni, my iPhone 6s is out of date i need a upgrade.

The cables are still in place along the Brook and on the Manor Bridge so i presume the moniters are still at the Manor.
