The Accumulator and Pool will be open to the public in the second half of the week and at weekends from Friday 22nd February, with its final day for visits being Easter Sunday (March 23rd). Opening hours are noon - 6pm on Thursday and Fridays and noon - 4pm on Saturdays & Sundays....so I am guessing the funnel is already in there, Phil.

Not that I have heard. But then, I wouldn't hear anyway! I will ask around on Monday & see if I can find out anything.
