00:08 in between Toaster and Wean. My husband and I started it in 1986 on July the

00:19 1st so it's coming up to our 38th year. We thought we were in paradise, I mean it

00:26 seems so big I couldn't think we'd ever ever finish. Now you can see what it's

00:31 like, can't get them all in really. And these buildings, they're all genuine

00:36 Victorian which is nice, it's different. And it's been lovely, I've made lovely

00:43 friends, I've had lovely people in the units, lovely staff, you know over the years. So yeah I've enjoyed it.
