Darren Brennan spotted this while walking past the renovation work on the Grand Theatre in Leeds recently. You can clearly see two things. One, the steel was fabricated by Geo Depledge & Co Ltd and secondly it was supplied by British Steel.

It's the building whose architecture divides opinion among Leeds residents.

ALLAN RICHARDSON HANNAH died on June 23, aged 70, after a long fight against an incredibly debilitating disease.

Allan was born in Falkirk and moved to Dumfries in 1960 with his parents Ronnie and Cecelia and younger sister Kathryn.

He attended Glasgow College of Building and qualified as a chartered quantity surveyor with Kean Kennedy and Partners in 1973.

He used his significant intellect to become a very successful businessman with great confidence and huge tenacity.

At the same time, he was always conscious of helping others around him who were less fortunate or not as able.

Allan’s main career started at James Crombie & Sons in 1975, where he worked his way up to become managing director in 1978.

He then moved to work in the Middle East, firstly in Abu Dhabi and then in Riyadh. He was due to return to the UK when — in typical fashion — he bought a campervan and drove the family back across Europe. They had some extraordinary adventures on the way.

On his return to the UK, Allan became managing director at George Depledge & Co Ltd in Leeds.

In 1994 he joined Tilbury Douglas plc as joint group managing director based in Twyford and moved to the Henley area. Following a takeover, he became a full board director of Interserve, running the profitable international RMD Kwikform division.

He retired from Interserve in 2004

Dear Friends, It is with deep regret that I have to inform you that Jack Green passed away this morning at 9am. I'm sure he's already counting those nuts and bolts and keeping everyone waiting for a long stand.

The calendars have arrived. I have three remaining to give away as Darren Brennan has already won one. Daz you'll need to arranged when you want to pick it up. One Saturday at B&Q works for me. I'll do a draw out of all those who 'LOVE' the album. One proviso, you win it then you'll need to collect or pay postage. Album 'LIKE's are not entered into the draw allowing people to like without fear of winning.

Draw closes end of November

I'm looking to get one of these to use as a template. It's 6mm aluminium plate with two cut slots in it. I can then use my guided router through it to cut into wood underneath. I need it cheap and I've been quoted £70 inc vat so far. Anyone got any ideas.
