The two ladies either side of your grandfather look well armed. I have tried to make the barrel lid as clear as possible.

Hi there,

Just had to comment on how lucky you are to have such a great photo - what a bunch of mostly very happy, relaxed workers!  Lots of old photos especially those taken in studios are so bland and lacking expression - this one is so different - lovely to see!
