I first met Cliff in the early 90’s when my car needed welding. The hole was near to the fuel lines, he got me to sit in the car and hold a washing up liquid bottle of water, just in case. An approach to health and safety, long gone. I spent a day with him at his foundry in Eaton, near to Congleton in Cheshire, he could fix nearly anything. His farm was in Bosley, near to Macclesfield, with no mains electricity at the property, Cliff and his wife were nearly self sufficient.
