      I fished the pier at the 45 mark yesterday and was watching what they were doing. They seemed to be doing structural repairs involving divers.
      People who live in glass houses have to answer the door.

                its a bloody big crane i know that

                the only reason i ask is during the summer the divers were using small boats and i was told they were repairing damage around the blocks area, just wasnt sure what the crane was for
