  Yesterday the 6th February The Lord Lieutenant of Kent the Viscount De L'Isle as Her Majesty the Queens representative visited the Mill to unveil a plaque to commemorate the Bi- Centenary of Crabble Corn Mill.
  
  He gave a very nice speech about the history of the Mill prior to unveiling the plaque, after which he and the guests enjoyed a buffet prior to him going on a full tour of the Mill.
  
  Another memorable day in the history of the Mill.

  Congratulations Harry - No Ant there ?
  
  Sorry Jean and I couldn't be there, this Pneumnia is still dragging me down, but pleased to hear it was a good day and the weather was kind, but cold.
