Hi Mikey, very much looking forward to one of the highlights of the year. Will bring Keith along and plenty of junks!
Cheers, David

I was always put off TVs by the thought of high voltages and live chassis -- even the thought of a bit of easy money failed to tempt me, when there were so many other repair jobs people would pay for. But sometimes I do still feel the odd pang of regret ..... I certainly wouldn't mind spending an afternoon having fun with tellies, and I'm only just up the '38; but then again, I wouldn't like to think I was taking up a space that could have gone to someone more deserving of it. So I'll not be too put out by anyone telling me to butt out, if you want to make it a serious lads' get-together .....

Hi Julie. Fear not - You would be very welcome to come along. We'll squeeze everyone in somehow.

Yes please! Do you need any massive radiograms? Can bring up a couple and I could throw in a Fidelity AVS2000..John.

Tazman1966 · 26th Feb 2017, 5:54 pm

Any room for a not so small one?!! I'm actually scheduled to rest that weekend so count me in Mike. It's been far too long since I was able to make it over.

Hunts smoothing bomb · 28th Feb 2017, 6:55 am

I'm looking forward to catching up with you Taz, it's been ages since I've seen you!

Pasties sound good to me. They were certainly a big hit last time.

Of course. Plenty of room Robin. (Well, actually there probably isn't much room, but we'll squeeze everyone in somehow.)

Massive radiograms are always what the doctor ordered - although we may have a bit of a job fitting them in the house. And an AVS2000 eh? I'm quite tempted by that myself John. If only I had the space...

Excellent news Tas. I think you've managed to miss the last couple because of work etc. so it'll be tip top to see you again.
