OUR DAUGHTER Alison has branched out in business with a Roadside Food Van.  She is on the A3 Southbound near the small town of Liss.
There she is.  Her van goes by the name of "Capones"  She has a reputation for friendly service and the very best of breakfasts in a Bap. (A Bap is a flat bun like you get a hamburger in - only her's are better!)
She has a portable generator to provide power for her coffee maker and other equipment. (believe me Capones Roadside Food Bar is is one of the very few such food stops that offer hot fresh ground coffee!)
Anyway, she had a problem off-loading the generator from the van and getting it back on again at the end of the day. This was done by hand using a wooden ramp which doubles as a stand by the counter. So - we put our heads together and made a ramp out of a couple of old bed rails. Eddie (another Eddie who is an amazing DIY man at our church) did some welding and made a trolley to mount the generator on.  A small 12volt winch was fixed on to the trolley, (Tim did that) and there we go.


Here she is learning how to use it!
