The opportunity to grab a turn on Blackmoor Vale for my birthday wasn't one I was going to pass up.....

Blackmoor Vale stands on shed, waiting for the off

Typically though, as with all birthdays, luck wasn't exactly on my side.  Firstly, I didn't get handed the shovel for more than a few minutes, and just when I was looking forward to a nice cup of tea at the end of the day, I poked my head out of the side of the cab, and was greeted with something in the eye, and after being left at Horsted to get it attended to, I eventually ended up at the A and E of the Princess Royal Hospital in Haywards Heath!  Apparently this is not an uncommon event for them, but a rather poor end to the day none the less.
