You have a thing for reservoirs???

I spent today going round the larger ones in North Yorkshire to tender for upgrading the radio systems and control demands etc. One of the Reservoirs has 2 massive pumps that are DEDICATED to pumping water to the Coca Cola plant in Wakefield (biggest in Europe!) The update of control is for new lines being added to increase production. I'd best not get that wrong.
