The ISP we use for email has a fairly small maximum size, so
we have to split pictures across more than one email, hence the continuation of
the tour! The rum factory was right up north (St George's is in the south west)
and uses the original methods and machinery - using sugar beet and powered
by waterwheel. The sugar beet is grown locally especially for the factory.
