On Holiday For The Games...

Every morning  I pass George Taylor & Co (Hamilton) Ltd - a foundry on the way to Hamilton Central Station - 5 mins walk from the Bongo's campsite.

In contrast to my idea of a foundry:  all dirt, noise, smoke & heat the main building and its grounds are very clean and smart looking: freshly painted, watered flower pots, manicured lawns decorated with  neatly painted samples of casting exercises perhaps  - Thomas the Tank Engine, a Penny Farthing made from what looks like railway wheels. 

But there is never a soul or car about - desolate - as thou the Receiver had just been called in. I was perplexed. 

Then it clicked perhaps they are on holiday. No mention on the web but I called and was advised by a recorded message:

....we are on holiday till 7:45 Monday 4th August...

They'd gone on holiday for the Games!
