There were actually over 900 Green Goddesses maintained by the government for contingencies but they were all disposed of in 2004.
John ... glad we were only stuck with our share then 🙂 (DTels was organised on a regional basis) ..... when you walked into that massive shed and saw the rows and rows of them stretching away, and knowing you had the same PM to do on every one, that was more than enough 😁
By 2004 I'd been 15 years living in my woods up here and they'd been someone else's problem 🙂
Presume there were other teams from other departments PM-ing the mechanicals, pumps etc who we never saw .... lot of continuous work for a back-up .... but if they'd been needed we'd have been glad of them!
