We just paid £100,000 for revamp, work it out for yourself how you would finance that. Backstop plates cost over £1000 and need replacing couple of times a year, linatex curtain £1500 again twice a year. Its not cheap running a range. And the RO's turn up for free, every week, but get grumbled at if they have to have a day off or are late.
