<description><![CDATA[<p>There are a number of group features which I intend using going forward.</p><p>The group homepage may be updated occasionally.</p><p>I have created a few custom pages which draw on information from a workshop I developed some years ago.&nbsp; Each chapter in the workshop manual will form a separate custom page.&nbsp; I have not yet completed this process so will be adding additional pages in the near future.</p><p>Future pages will at least cover the following topics:<br /></p><ul><li>Valves and fittings</li><li>Boiler water treatment</li><li>Boiler operation</li><li>Interesting websites and online content</li><li>Coal</li></ul><p>I intend to send out a regular email to those who join the group advising of any new items that have been added, so make sure you join the group to receive these.&nbsp; You are free to leave the group at any time.<br /></p><p>The group forums are intended as places to ask questions and to stimulate discussion, and I expect these forums to grow as we go along.</p><p>I will use the group blog to share some ideas and thoughts, but will keep discussion in the forums.</p><p>I will also be uploading some of my photographs to the gallery together with explanatory captions.&nbsp;</p><p>In the not too distant future I intend to host a number of webinars dealing with the main issues with boilers.</p>]]></description>
