Today was the big strip of Lee's nova.
I went down to help out as i was having a few bits.
Im sure he will put some more stuff up later about the day.
Pic's time.
I dont think Lee wanted his piture taken.

also had some funny moments with this at the start of the day as Lee had trouble starting the strip down dew to haveing to sort some nova's out first.
