After Sales Service

6 January, 2014
Posted in: Ireland

I was chatting to a woman whose father used to work as an engineer at Ardnacrusha recently. This is Ireland’s most famous engineering project – so famous there is even a great, almost Soviet style picture of its construction. She tells me that Siemens still sent a man over from Germany to check on it every year when her father was working there in the 70s and 80s and, for all we know, they still do today.

She also told me that at 10 he showed her how to float concrete. Whatever floats your boat and all that.
